Hey, we should be happy all americans are getting money now, before only about 50% of americans were going to get anything at all.

Now it's going to be based on SS# and it doesn't sound like there is a min income for 2018 anymore, so you know anyone going to college that year, or who was in HS etc, will actually get money now.

I do think people ALREADY getting benefits should not get any money, personally. So if your on unemployment already, or disability, or social security etc, and are already getting a check from the gov, then that would cover the $1200 (if you get that much, or bring it up to $1200 if you don't).

I know that sounds mean, but you are ALREADY getting money......so why give more?

As far as people still working, it's not really fair for them to work and end up getting around the same money as everyone not working, so I think they should get the $1200 as well.

This plan works over all, but it's still just.....so much money, we are in effect going to quadruple our deffcit in one year (they did the whole 1.5 trill thing to save the stock market already and this is another 2 trillion and are deficit before was 1.02 trillion.)

That has to come from somewhere, and sadly it's going to be us in the long term.

So this may sound great to lots of people, I hear people going like, sweet, gonna get a game system, or rock, I want some new furniture etc.

But this is probably like the most expensive loan anyone has ever taken, because we (the american people) are getting like 1/10th of it in direct cash, but we are going to have to pay it all back eventually.....at 10x the amount we got.

Even loan sharks are usually not that harsh.
