Did you think it be an extra 2000 plus the 600 or did you expect it to be 1400 + 600 you already got?
Vote
Ossoff and Warnock both used the phrase "2000 relief cheques" during their campaigns as even Warnock shared a mocked up image of what a 2000 cheque would look like But Biden's relief plan forsees cheques of 1400 supplement to the 600 payments already signed off by Trump bringing the total to 2000 rather than 2000 + 600 Some voters were left unimpressed calling it as semantic trickery with one person who canvassed for the Democrats saying he felt "lied to the people" when promised of it. Rogelio Linares told conservative Mediaite "I'm a man of principle and morals and i feel like s***. I lied to them.. People are very mad about it after the 1400 plan was unveiled. At the doors, i was literally telling people, 2000 cheques, you can rely on this" Another, Rachel Kahn said the $2000 promise was misleading and said "In my opinion as a person who does marketing, advertising and public communications as my job, i would confidently say their messaging implied an additional 2000 not 2000 minus 600." Oscar Zaro said many turned out for them on the promise of 2000 and said they really underestimate just how much people are hurting economically. Warnock used the phrase $2000 relief cheques several times in the final days of the campaign as Ossoff as well said they can pass $2000 relief cheques Alexandria Ocasio Cortez even criticized it calling for a full 2000 as well as Cori Bush and is calling for the larger cheques to be paid monthly. Trump himself called for the cheques to be raised to 2000 rather than the small 600 offered by Republicans. Biden's 1.9 trillion dollar relief package faces stiff opposition from Republicans who no longer want to further expand the budget deficit as the bill also includes boosting minimum wage to 15 dollars an hour. Did you think it was an extra 2000 or did you thought it would be 1400 added onto the 600 already sent out? https://i.imgur.com/9InGhsh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JkrgGHL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qbVd53j.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZntfQzh.jpg --- The News Will Continue...For Now call me mrduckbear, sweater monkeys.

So fucking stupid
They're increasing it to $2000. They're just mad they can't get more money. If some jackass on twitter started a campaign for $5000 checks, they'd latch onto that and demand it, too. The republican claims that people don't want handouts and prefer to work for their money have been so fucking shredded this past year. Good on the Dems...somewhat...for not giving into public pressure to just give infinite handouts and actually trying to set boundaries to the insane debt we're piling up. That's what our leaders should be doing, what's necessary, not what's popular. But then they get wrecked for it in the next election. Democracy indeed is giving people exactly what they deserve, and giving it good and hard... EDIT: Increasing min. wage to $15 is stupid, too. Adjust it for inflation and permanently index it to inflation so that every year going forward it goes up automatically, without needing to wait for Dems to have total control to raise it again. "Fight for $15" is a stupid over-simplified buzzword/phrase. People in rural Kansas don't need a $15/hr minimum wage. States/cities with massive cost of living are free to set it higher, as always. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think the core issue is not the one time stimulus but the unemployment extensions which no one seems to pay attention to.

The republican claims that people don't want handouts and prefer to work for their money have been so fucking shredded this past year. When you get a lot of people hooked on government money, it erodes their will to contribute to society. And, let's be honest, both sides claim that people want to work for their money, it's not just a republican narrative. faramir77 posted... I only learned a year ago that Americans spell it "check".

It was originally going to be $2000 then Mitch blocked it and they came out with the $1400 + $600 one.

$600 + $1400 is how I'd interpret it. The people whining are probably just faking outrage to get more money for nothing.

That's funny considering the GOP were adamantly against the $2,000 when Trump suggested it but now they want to make the Dems the bad guys. These people (GOP) have no morals whatsoever.
If you count the $600 and add the $1400 that amounts to $2,000 if my math is correct so what's the issue. They should send people $1500 per month if they qualify until Covid is under control. For people who have the luxury of working from home, this isn't an issue but for people who are still idled from work due to closure because of Covid, that would help them greatly. In my opinion I think people who feel their employers aren't providing a safe working environment due to Covid should be allowed to collect Unemployment until their employers comply with CDC and gets their facilities up to code but that's just me. --- SpankageBros ...
