Anyone else get a COVID stimulus fund today?

[Alaskanopolis]

Got mine. It’s either they send it to Pakistan for gender studies and other craphole country’s I care nothing about or the give it to us.
I just hope Mitch pulls his head out and let’s that extra 2,000 come my way to... or he might decide trannies in South America need gender study money as well.

Most of that money goes right back into the pockets of the politician and the guy that hired the lobbyist that helped get that part of the bill written.

Nope. Money only goes one direction for me, in regards to the IRS.

I try not to buy too far into conspiracy theories and haven’t made my mind up yet on wether these stimulus checks are good or bad but under one lens I can’t help but see it as wealth redistribution. Which I think the incoming administration will be all for.

Certainly some who have lost jobs and currently looking for another and small business owners who have been forced to close their doors deserve help. On the other foot though those who haven’t worked and live on welfare by choice(I realize exceptions exist) are just getting an extra check and have no intent on contributing. The first group I mentioned who want to work and those who don’t qualify will foot the bill in the long run.

Convenient solution to a problem the government created. In communist shitholes the government determines which businesses are essential and which aren't. Well, where does it look like we're sitting at this moment in time?

Look at how much money not only goes to stuff like Pakistani gender studies, but how much we sent to that lab in Wuhan that definitely had nothing to do with the virus that totally started in the wet market from eating bats.

Pays tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars in income tax over lifetime.
Gets $600 back "free."
Thanks government. Now, send some more billions of our tax money overseas so you can get your kickbacks to enrich yourself and I'll just shut-up and be happy with my "free" $600.

Not sure what your point is other than you are just trying to sound smart. Like I said, I’m literally powerless against it so I’ll take my 600 bucks.

At least you spent it on white claws.

My point is you shouldn't be happy to get money that isn't free, you should be pissed.

I’m not though. Even if I wasn’t getting that 600 dollars the government would still be sending shitloads of money overseas.

And as I already pointed out, getting pissed isn’t worth my time.

You do realize that was a joke right?

Let them eat cake

Life is too short to walk around angry all the time. I gave it up with the booze and smokes.

Not sure if serious?

Got mine and my wife’s the other day. I view it as I am just getting money back that was stolen from me to begin with.

I assumed so. That's a lot of Claws.

I don't think anyone is advocating for a state of perpetual rage. I see, based on all the people happy to get $600, that it worked.

I view it as our kids abs grand kids will have to suffer and pay for these times

Seems more like people are angry that they got the $600, there wouldn’t be anywhere near this outrage if people just got nothing. It’s pretty funny really.

Well yeah, all the kids who have been out of school or getting crappy homeschooling will be behind when the next year starts and so on and so forth. This is the real dumbing down of the country.

It would be funny to do though, my wife would be pissed if I came home with 600 white claws in my truck.

Yep I agree. A lot of damage being done right now
