Current Events > Why are americans content on a 600 dollar stimulus, this country is a joke

(+) Yeah! (+)

600 dollars can't even cover rent in Mississippi, but but but I can get a PS5 doe. This is why nobody takes this country seriously and why people like Trump get elected.

what do you think other countries get?

Hey, if you can get them to give us more, I won't complain.

and I saw a topic about can't wait to get a PS5 or something with my stimulus

Most Amercians dont need it as much as you think? I'm surprised at the number of people who dont realize how pathetic they look and sound begging for $600.

It's some of the saddest shit I've ever seen.

You're living in a bubble. Look at the surging numbers of evictions

Stop asking for socialism, besides the vaccine is coming soon and we'll be free of masks and hopefully the tyrants in power in some states will pipe down.

so it's okay for businesses and corporations to get aid but it's socialism if Americans get a damn 600 stimulus check?

And yet there are help wanted signs everywhere, especially supply chain, retail, and werehouse jobs. We can't get half the people to show up to interviews after they schedule them.

Granted, not high paying....but $15-20 an hour isn't bad and will pay your rent at least.

Isn't Canada doing a $2000 monthly thing?

I have a supply chain degree and I can't get even a rejection email from companies I have applied for. I can use anecdotal stories too.

If this were true then $600 won't affect you either way.

Most Americans are not facing evictions, nor will $600 or $1200 save anyone 2-3 months behind on rent..

Uh, that's the point of this topic. 600 bucks is a joke.

There will be another stimulus when Biden is president. This is just a $600 bonus.

Why does anyone actually still reply seriously to Prismblade lmao

Ha ha, literally "you're not facing an eviction so it's fine".

I wasn't aware he had a reputation. Is he a known reality denying Trump supporter?

As far as I remember he's just a run of the mill talk out of his ass clown whos never had any meaningful contribution to any thread he's posted in. Being a Trumper with no perspective is just the cherry on top. Treat him like the rest and at most laugh at his bullshit until he pisses off. Its the only treatment they deserve at this point.

i guess that would explain americans' victim complex about this stuff but overall usa seems to fall around average when compared to other developed nations' corona stimulus packages

If you have a problem with my statements or opinions and would rather derail the topic to slander me like a coward, rather then engage with me proper then just add me to your ignore list and be done with it.


---

@Prismsblade

You have never had anything of value to say and should close your account without making an alt to slink back on and spread more dumb shit. Is this slanderous enough for you or do you need time to demonstrate how shit your takes are on your own for the rest of the class so that they can inevitably come to the same conclusion?

---

It's the American way. We're so used to our government doing absolutely nothing for us that whenever they do provide the bare minimum, we're supposed to be grateful we got anything at all.

---

Republicans always fuck things up for our country, our country has a huge stain on its ability to progress because of the GOP

Ving_Rhames

Idk what Ive said recently to trigger you so much but get help. This much emotion for just a mere shit poster with nothing of value to say couldnt ever evoke such emotions unless theres more truth to it then you're willing to admit, or accept.

I hope you can work past in the future and maybe engage with me proper but until then I wish you the best.

CERB was more like the $600/wk unemployment boost that Americans got for a short while: you either had to be unemployed through no fault of your own or had your hours cut so drastically you fell under the income limit, so everyone that was still gainfully employed did not qualify for CERB).
---

I mean, its better than nothing at all.

---

Tags are working as intended, trolls and unhinged trumpers galore in this topic. I'm sure yall can guess who they are lol

But yeah $600 is fucked up and worse then what we got before. We need stimulus going forward to help those that really need it and those of us who dont need it can help boost small businesses around by giving them money for goods/services. Ya know to make sure their business stays up and they can pay their rent. That's the point of stimulus is to pay it back into the economy. These business bailout shit doesnt help because the big corporations that dont need it will take it all again and the ones that do wont get shit.

The reason people want direct stimulus over bailouts is because we can decide what business it goes to and we help that mom and pop store. Cause we already did this rodeo and it didnt wor last time and it isn't gonna work this time.

I appreciate the clarification. I wasn't sure to be honest.

Its sad but $600 means they can eat a little something, I think theyre hoping $600 will put food on the table until Biden can really put a stimulus together for us since Trump was the worst president of all time
