The centrist Liberal gov't in Canada provided $2K a month in relief through the first wave of the pandemic. It was not very controversial and was not opposed by the Conservatives. To date, Canada has half the number of Covid deaths per capita than the US.

Yes, 💯!!

“Moral” does not exist in our gov’t leaders. Neither party.

Sure very clever but how are exploitative corporations meant to coerce people into awful (and more importantly, profitable) work conditions if they have a better option?

In mississippi almost no one would work if this passed, i understand in some areas the cost of living is higher, but in areas with a lower cost of living especially if the average pay is low people just aren't going to work 🤷

Not in country where billionaires rule and money is worshipped. Needs of everybody struggling is not consequential

Let's camp out in DC until it happens! Poor people's campaign, MLK style

Also, in retrospect, $2K/month could've been sold as "buying in" to the fight against COVID. "Yes, we know you're not convinced it's real, but here's $2000. Do your job and wear a mask and isolate."

The uproar over the $50,000 income level for the stimulus is a DISTRACTION from the $15 min wage which will be WAY more relevant 2, 5, 8 years from now.

$2000/month for everyone agreed. $15/hr for all members of Congress, then we can truly spot the politicians who are going hard to turn a buck.
