They're going straight into Phase 4.

The fuck even happened in the Stimulus War Phase 2 and 3?

most people didn't even get the first check this is bullshit meant to quell possible riots while letting the corporations and wealthy pretty much pillage anything the states have left worth pillaging before throwing them to the wolves.

The other phases were stuff like the small business loans and bailouts.

The flaw isnt so much with the tax cut itself, but the budget shortfalls and increases in spending that Trump will inevitably do.
A payroll tax cut does jack shit to people who arent working.

It also puts more money into those who make more money as thats how percents work. 6% of 100k is more than 6% of 50k.

I'm still voting against him, but I'd be okay with Trump throwing another $1,000 dollars at me.

I feel like this would be political suicide for Trump

It could be, if there's an opposition willing and able to highlight it.

I dunno maybe one billionaire could pay 0.001% of the tax they are supposed to pay
Or perhaps take 0.000001% of the military budget

the fundamental problem here is that, no that wouldn't pay for it, and secondly, the first stimulus package wasn't something we could afford and it was over bloated with nonsense(and yes a lot of nonsense was from democrat pork), but how can we afford to pay for a second round of this?

Our great great grandchildren are going to be paying this shit back, or we're going to default, and that will get ugly quick.

We simply cannot afford this.

Furthermore, if you worked in retail on the friday that we got stimulus check number 1....you know what poor people were buying? TVs and xboxs and playstations and bikes and fishing rods and new phones. Not rent, not food. Which is the third flaw in this, people aren't actually using it for food and rent.

You didnt explain how it wouldnt pay for it. The rest of your post is completely meaningless and/or irrelevant

Payroll tax cuts aren't going to help people who are out of a job. Of course Trump is a fucking moron so this does not surprise me.

We are $24+ trillion in debt with zero balanced budgets, ballooned deficits, and the unborn will be the ones who will pick up this tab of fiscal irresponsibility.

Or perhaps you could learn math. Say 150,000,000 citizens qualify for the $1200. That's $180,000,000,000.... the richest person is Jeff Bezos and even his fortune (assuming he could liquidate it all at once and have the cash immediately, which he can't fyi) was about $125,000,000,000 at the stock market peak.

The rich will not let the government take that much money from them, they will just move it away from US jurisdiction.

Anytime a tax cut is brought up the republicans should be hit over the head with "any tax cut without a corresponding cut to the budget isn't a tax cut, it's a tax on your children's children, shirking responsibility and kicking the can down the road." I get that democrats don't really want to cut programs but I also don't get how they let Republicans pretend to be for fiscal responsibility and a balanced budget.

Nah he's probably butthurt over all the unrelated shit Pelosi and the Dems tried putting in the last stimulus bill while simultaneously ignoring all the unrelated shit the Republicans tried putting in their version even though it was actually worse than what the Dems wanted

Taxation is theft.

Laying claim to the fruits of another man's labor is slavery as far as I'm concerned.

Ok. Explain why the military cant stand to lose 0.0001% of their budget or why we cant tax billionaires and multi-millionaires
