Title: $500B for about 300M people.
Post by: Reporter on March 18, 2020, 04:09:35 PM
So now they are saying each person  may get a different amount in two checks: April and May. Not beyond, of course.

Republicans shouldn't accept this check because that's socialism and goes against their beliefs.

Sounds like there's no condition. You just have to be alive.

So, adults will get $1,000.00 and children will get $500.00 on the first round.

Of course, the first announcement that came two weeks ago said they'd be sending the checks in two weeks. Now, they are announcing today that they will send the money 3 weeks. lol

Will the money really come? Seeing will be our belief.

the question is how they are going to make the payout?  everyone who filed a tax return, automatically gets a check or do they need to apply somewhere for it?

So basically the government is going to flood the economy with and hope that a scientific breakthrough emerges to where we can return to normalcy in 6-12 weeks.  Interesting...

I hope the government will keep sending money until the scare becomes scarce.

LOL...umm no, no...whoever is not a republican and not a supporter of Trump should not  get a check!
nah, Chinese and other Asians shouldn't get the check since Trump doesn't like Asians.

I believe these are conditions to getting the money...

"Married couples would be eligible for up to $2,400 in assistance with an additional $500 for every child.

Assistance would begin phasing out for individuals earning at least $75,000 and would not be available to those with adjusted gross incomes above $99,000. Assistance for couples phases out after $150,000 and is not available to those with joint incomes of more than $198,000."
