How about everyone just get an electronic deposit into an account? And let it continue permanently, except after the pandemic put a cap on it for anyone who makes over 1 million per year, a threshold where the deposits cease after one million dollars.

Explain to @SenateGOP @SenateDems @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats each $2,000 given to each of 95% will anyway trickle up to .01% who own them & they may look at it seriously. Or else they don't give a darn about the 95% especially when there is no more democracy.

So you want to drop $13 trillion over the next year. How are we going to pay for it? Raise everyone’s taxes to 70-80%?

Also: retroactive UI starting from the last week of July when Pandemic Unemployment Assistance ended. That’s $600/week in case people forgot.

Money going to the people gets circulated into the economy, strengthening & supporting it, & in part, collected again as taxes come tax time. That Congress & Senate have failed to grasp that raises serious questions & doubts as to their qualifications for public office.
