What could possibly go wrong with giving out "free money"?
BTW,what about the 600 bucks a week paid to out of work workers? Will they also get the "free" $1200?
Unless they are 17 and living at home.
Here's what can "go wrong", and the architects of this nonsense MADE SURE it did:
If you are under 17 your parents get the $500.
If you are 17 and a dependent they get nothing, even though you can eat that much in a week off the dollar menu.
If you are 17 and were carried as a dependent on someone's tax forms (your parents') you are not eligible for the $1200 either.
If you are 17, you likely lost your entry level job to the lockdown.
You gave up your senior spring stuff at school, from formal dances to that last sports season that might have brought a college scholarship, to science projects and STEM fairs, any of that stuff leading up to graduation...
and any social life you had was on the sly or over social media.
In short, you got screwed. But there's a good chance you'll be 18 in November, and you aren't so stupid as to realize that you got screwed. If you vote, who are you going to take that out on? Especially if you have been listening to virtually any news program on cable, doing facebook, twitter, snapchat, etc.
Another round of NOT getting any compensation when everyone else does, and you're going to be pissed off, if you aren't already in the streets throwing things and yelling like a Communist.
The point being, is that this "stimulus money" thing is already weaponized, just most people don't know it.
It HAS created an 'underclass" who have given up their stuff (jobs, etc.) and got nothing in return but more rules and a lockdown.
Whose hands does that pay into?
