Imagine what America would be like now if every adult knew they’d be getting $2k/mo (retroactively to when the pandemic began) & $1k for every child. Imagine how much panic, suicidal despair, domestic conflict & hunger would fall away. And be clear: we have the money to do that.

Please take a look at #BECU or Universal Electronic Central Bank. This is the kind of system that would make it all possible. youtube.com/VChs_4mqzis Please, take a look at it! It's in Spanish but caption translates very well. Innovation is required for the new reality.

No we'd print the money to do that. This country is broke in many ways....
That costs over 3T per pay period. Instead, why don't we suspend mortgage and rent payments for the duration? No evictions and most people can afford groceries if they don't worry about rent.

Tom Brady's company got almost $1 million dollars, so I'm just glad he's going to be alright.
And how well the economy would be doing
