$2000, not $600

$1400 more debt per taxpayer, that is not targeted. At all.
Oh it’s targeted. Towards the 50% of households that qualify based on income level. In other words, half the country doesn’t get a check, even though they pay taxes...actually more in taxes (based on % of income).

This is ridiculous. I’d be willing to bet that a helluva lot of people in this income bracket haven’t missed a paycheck during COVID. On top of that, their overall costs are drastically lower. They are in better financial shape than they were before.

Agreed. I’d even be fine with a rough and imperfect system where you can apply online and “digitally sign” (under penalty of perjury) that you’ve lost substantial income and/or cannot pay rent or utility/food bills. Then you immediately get a check sent to you. Would at least have a little logic behind it since I think we’re behind the “flood the market with cash!” days in the spring.

$600 is better than $2000
$0 is better than $600
How about -$600 or -$2000?
Say, because your expenses have gone down because you have no where to spend your money, so you send $600 or $2000 to the United States Treasury to pay down the national debt (and only to pay down the national debt).

Whatever... It would be nice to be altruistic and put the funds back into struggling businesses, but it’s Lucas and Finley that will need to help pay this back, so it will all go into a 529 for Finley and an IRA for Luke.

Like the lead from Momento.
Not at all. Lenny knew he had a condition.
