Reasonable. Compassionate. Good for the economy.

Another $1400 stimulus check would bring 7.2 million more Americans out of poverty. If two more stimulus checks were approved, more than 12 million more Americans would be lifted from poverty. Why stop lowering poverty? Let's just make the checks monthly! newsweek.com/fourth-stimulus…

1400$ does not lift anyone out of poverty. even IF it was weekly for a year. 75K will not buy a house, reliable car, education and quality food. you're better off, but out of $ and now your back on prop taxes, insurance payments and in poverty

On what planet is it food for the economy to charge people $5700 to give them &1400 back and pilfer the rest on special interest? At least be honest and tell ppl how much the stimulus is costing them.

Of course! Simple! Let's just make the minimum wage $100 an hour and everybody will be rich. As if. Please read "The Road To Serfdom" by F. A. Hayek.

Compassionate to let children be trafficked? Why don't you spend your time crying down at the border?

If more stimulus checks are given we then need to do a proper national lockdown.
Replying to @marwilliamson
If the checks stop ... these people will go back into poverty ... so you're right ... don't stop them!
