The bill would provide a $3,000 direct payment to every person in households making $150,000 or less during its first year, which equals $12,000 for a family of four.

Good point but that will probably create even more inflation, perhaps the best allocation would be to reinvest that money in all public services and government benefits. Otherwise we’ll get the 12k but pay 25$ for a dozen of eggs. I am saying that as some works in the service industry. I would rather to be able to quit my fucking job get decent unemployment , so I could go back to school or open a business, rather than, get more taxable income, and live in a society where everybody is chasing the dangling carrot, keep working in a dead end job all my life until my ball sac saggs to my knees, so I can retire on a piece of shite pension, that slowly kills me because I can’t afford to eat. Just my opinion.
