We should say thanks to our grand children. They will be paying for it.
While I am not gonna turn it down, and I recognize my (and other taxpayers') taxes paid or will pay for this, it does seem kinda nuts to me that the payments are given to everyone regardless of need.
Read an article yesterday stating the the overall national savings rate in 2020 is at about 30%, up from 7% in 2019, due to the pandemic. (Less opportunities to spend.) I think much of the country simply puts these disbursements into savings. Meanwhile, per the news, the less fortunate are lining up to receive food.
Something's wrong with this picture...

The grand children will also be paying for the Tax Cuts the rich people got too.

I sent the $77 I got last time down to the Roadrunner, the local Food Bank.
Probably will do the same when I get it again.

WILD WOMEN, ALCOHOL, PARTIES, and a jail cell is in my future !
WAIT ! I am not allow to do any of these things. Well maybe the jail cell if I keep parking in "Police Only" parking spaces.

Stealing from generations unborn. And without trying to be political, since I say a pox on both sides of the aisle, maybe someday I will understand millions to Pakistan for gender programs, but probably not.
stimulus
Onomea, i actually feel the same way. money dispersed without being needed by most. i know people who blew through that money like it was a birthday present. i didn't get stimulated and am ok with that. Praise the Lord i didn't need it. krs

I think they call it the American Way. It is easier to pretend actually doing something instead of actually fixing anything. I can't wait to see what will happen next. Next few years will really be a interesting.
I sometimes wonder if we will all wake up one day and realize it's all going to hell, and no one will be able to stop it...

Actually thank the USA taxpayer. That's where the money comes from.
Taxes
Ya know, if the government would stifle its gluttonous spending, the "successful" people could get a further reduction in federal income tax from the 37% or so that they pay ( less legal deductions).

Tax rates,wonder which way they will go?
Here's a comparison chart of the federal tax rates for the poor,middle class and rich folks.I wonder where the rates are heading?

Since the '90's I've paid an average of $10K a year in Fed taxes (Almost $20 K for 6 of the "Pharmaceutical years"). That ain't counting SS 8% and any other "Freedom Fees." Anything they want to send me I'll take gladly. It would be nice to trade up from my 11 y/o truck. I have personally supported families that never ain't hit a lick of work, ain't paid a dime in any taxes (except lotto tix), live in a house nearly like mine on the section 8 (aptly named) walk in any hospital and never see a bill because of the medicaid and eat lobster tails on the EBT card while paying for smokes, beer and lotto tix with cash, and get $ 4 digit IRS "refunds" every year. I personally am "all in" on the $2K PER MONTH some swamp critter has proposed. "Show me the money!!!!!!" Does any body really think this gravy train will ever be intentionally stopped to "save the children's future?" There would need to be developed a new squeeze to buy votes. Ain't happening. Joe

It's THEIR money. If they wish to they can give it or leave it to THEIR kids.
Sometimes that education can be a hindrance, way to many people with art history and gender studies degrees refusing to take jobs they believe is beneath them.
We hear at the Engineering company I work at, but I went to collage, and you want me to work out side in the heat/cold/mud....
That's not education. It's indoctrination.

"We should say thanks to our grand children. They will be paying for it."
There is an alternative. We could ALL pay for it. The government might well pay for it by printing more money...so we would all actually pay for it through inflation.
