Anyone saying please no.

Have you really seen the numbers?

Real action must take place.

"B-b-but the economy"

• retail employees.

Noone should have any problem with this as long as we get stimulus checks.

Bro that would literally cut my student debt in half.

Please Biden

What a time for andrew yang to make this case

ironically trump basically tested out UBI. Could it be he is the most left wing president oat lmao. jk

If UBI ever happens he'll claim full credit for it either way

2k stimulus checks for 2 straight months would be ideal with the lockdown. Will it happen?

I f***ing hope so

for sure lol. I dont think UBI is a good idea tho especially not Yangs plan

If the numbers drop considerably down from this actual sensible people will praise Joe for making the tough call.

Give the people and small businesses stimulus and everything will be managable.

2k? thats a s*** ton lmao. Ps5 sales would go through the roof

Yeah but its the best way to help most americans who make average incomes.

Im hoping this happens. We just have to see how Joe would do. I see it all as a perfect opportunity for a good presidency if dems win the senate too. Dont have to sit here and fight all day. Its a time where the people need action from the govt, not excuses

Worst part of all of this, our president has literally given up. He wasnt doing that much to begin with, but now hes really just letting mfs die.

This is about to be a very dark and sad winter. A christmas surrounded by record deaths.

Joe would look like a God in comparison just by helping people

2k is way too much maybe they could raise the age to get it.
maybe 1k if you are single over 30
2k if you have children

I hate it here

Nah i dont think so.

1200 wasnt helping families who make average income in places like NY and LA.

I think if you have a full time job and you obviously arent pulling down serious figures i think its fine.

The country can easily afford that. We spend alot of money on really stupid s***. This would actually be a good idea.

Retail employees are as effected by the economy as anybody lol why u actin like its not their businees

Do you really think the economy is only an abstract concept with no impact on your life and safety?

It has less of an impact atm than the global pandemic with no other real solution until a vaccine. I think if youre thinking about safety it should first involve the global pandemic.

I dont believe the economy is the first thing a guy making 20k a year should be thinking about provided he is getting stimulus and unemployment bonus

It absolutely has more impact on him than the virus tf

Most retail employees are young so the virus is not a big threat for them lol you know what’s a threat tho? Losing their job and relying on a government program (THAT CANT LAST FOREVER OR EVEN LONG) to feed their kids and then eventually having to repay that in the next decades through austerity measures

If you’re someone under 60 and you’re making 20k a year, finding yourself without a job and without monthly government checks is a bigger threat than a virus that only has 0.1% chance of offing you

true in high cost of living areas they may need more

it could create short term inflation which would hurt low income people more

The stimulus is supposed to also help these businesses. Im not saying he should be happy he doesnt have a job to come back to.
The businesses should be supported in these stimulus packages as well so that way he has a job to come back to.

If you do a real lockdown and actually shell out real money instead of being stingy in the only time these actions are necessary, these risks can be mitigated.

Keep playing and acting like the virus has a 0.1% chance of hurting you. As someone who knows quite alot of healthcare workers this s*** hits you different regardless of age. Anyone can be asymptomatic or die. Or potentially have long lasting effects as were now finding out.

You are brushing off the pandemic completely. You should not be so sure of this virus having almost no chance of killing you. We STILL don't fully understand this virus. Its just naive at best.

When you say for 2 straight months surely you don't mean 2k a week, right?
