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.

"Every" is not in the plan...that's why the plans are not universal basic j come but targeted to buy votes

True. But the Trump administration don't want to provide that. They enjoy watching us suffer and starve to death instead.
Replying to @marwilliamson
tell Nancy that. she stonewalled just because she didn't want to give Trump a win. she says we have new president now so it's ok.

But Wall Street!!! What would become of Wall Street if you took their corporate welfare to help Americans in need!!! Dividends lowers, executives with smaller bonuses etc, they would starve!!!

It's not relationships and contact with others that makes us happy, it's money!
I spent time in a psych ward this year. They said it’s been a busy year...
What New Math makes you say "we have the money"? Inflation is already >3% for several years & headed up. (gov lies & says 1.5%) MMT works but has a limit, and we've passed that limit. What U propose is stealing. How bout LOANS instead? Bet there will be few takers.

I don’t think every adult. Let’s leave the billionaires who’ve profited off the pandemic out of it or that their share can go to state and local governments and hospitals.
