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

Where is this money coming from? Are you this ridiculously stupid?

This is the fault of Trump and McConnell and how they DIDNT handle this from the start. So yea, I don’t care if it means 100 years it takes the country to get out of debt from this, they need to take care of their citizens. But they only care about themselves and corporations.

In Canada, there is something similar, except that it is not for everybody, far from it.
Canada.... $2000.00 per month plus many other different programs...2000 is called CERB Canada Emergency Relief Benefits

That's what Canadians are getting from their government. A much more humane system.

That money would bubble up and nourish industries, products, and services that people genuinely need, keeping countless businesses afloat. People could make wiser decisions than if they're in a fearful survivalist state. We need to replace trickledown with #bubbleupeconomics.
