The “stimulus package” we need is $2,000 a month for every person as long as the pandemic lasts. You don’t have to be an economist or a politician to figure that out; you just have to be deeply human. #directcashrelief

2k per month. That means many people that are currently employed would quit their job and stay home. You know what you get when people have money and have no responsibilities? You get Chaz and Portland. That’s what 2k/month gets you.

And this money would come from where? The US is 22 trillion in debt already.

Yes yes yes comrafe. Bezos has made $9,000,000,000 during the pandemic off the backs of workers in Orwellian conditions (I worked for Amazon for 5 years, can confirm) and hundreds of thousands of people are hungry and facing eviction. #eatthrrich
