Yea they’d probably prefer it direct deposited.
Let the millionaires have their Yang Bucks, but cancel the bailouts to airlines and cruise ships.

Bush didn’t do means testing with the $600 stimulus payment iirc.
What could possibly go wrong when we label people as criminals permanently and then in a crisis make sure they have no help surviving?
Agreed. These payments should have been out last week, please don’t waste more time fucking with means testing

This x10,000. I’m totally fine with the wealthy getting the exact same benefits as absolutely everyone else, and then taxing them to pay for it.

I know, that’s why I need odds. But we all know how clovis eight likes to say he’d snap bet large fractions of his net worth on something that is 100% happening, hoping I could get a little action going.
I’m going to find something worthy and high-leverage to donate my $1000 to (maybe a friend in need). I don’t need it and my job is secure.
Maybe some kind of a national movement by well-off people to donate their $1000 check will spring up.

mine will go to the Senor Keed Memorial VBR Was At 137 One Month Ago fund
It will have a 50/50 asset allocation. Divided equally between scotch and boxed wine.

It’s not just vital, you’re going to wonder how you went so long without it and put it near the top of the list of things that North Americans are wrong about.

Dude’s district is largely the middle of the desert. The part that isn’t is whites overseeing mexican farmworkers.
So this. Once you travel and use one just tp seems downright wrong.
My cynical take: they don‘t want to.
Administration brainstorming:
„How can we blame Democrats for all this?“
„Propose short-term UBI and include an abortion ban in the legislation so Dems have to block it?“
„Do that“

Trip reports In UK…
Chinese Market and Costco both fairly empty as I went at 5pm 
As that’s dinnertime here usually.
All good and got everything I needed and my brother’s boss has said we can go to his place for food for free if things get bad, ill be honest I didn’t expect this offer from a Italian Shop owner. (As I’m good atm, I won’t be taking any well maybe the Bolognese sauce. )
Free homemade Italian food, wow… How can I resist. So I offered to take his staff home for free during this outbreak, seems fair.
And we’ll do trips at the end off the night and take the leftovers (All fresh that day) around the NA meetings and some soup kitchens.
Stay Chill everyone…

Checks aren’t coming until the end of April they say now. We need it way sooner than that.
They do it every damn year. The IRS is already set up for this.

I think it has a bit to do with the fact that Governors are elected via state-wide elections, so they are probably going to be more responsive to the wider concerns of their population rather than a US rep, who has some gerrymander district full of die-hard Trumpkins.
