adjl 05/20/21 9:41:38 AM #3:	It's a little late. Realistically, even if it does pass, it won't be before the end of this year. At current vaccination rates, it can be expected that case numbers will be dropping to manageable levels by then, meaning business as usual can resume and further stimulation isn't really needed. This is something that should have been done pretty much as soon as stuff started shutting down to mitigate that harm and improve compliance with public health measures (and therefore the outcome). Going to everyone doesn't seem altogether practical, though. Going to everyone that's been laid off (temporarily or otherwise) is more sensible, and that's really what the enhanced unemployment benefits accomplished. --- This is my signature.

BUMPED2002 05/21/21 2:01:20 PM #30:	They waited far too long before the first stimulus package and the second one so most people by that time were already treading water financially especially hourly-paid folks or people who actually live "paycheck to paychecK' because whether anyone agrees or not, that is a thing. Keep in mind that it's estimated that over half of the hourly-paid working people, including those with Full-Time jobs now live in or near the poverty level. It's also estimated that roughly 1/3rd of people working are now considered Part-Time which means they do not qualify for healthcare coverage so that falls on the States medical programs which means we all contribute to that via taxes. When people work and still qualify for government assistance for housing, medical and food subsidies, something clearly is wrong here. On the other hand, we now have a handful of people with an estimated combined net worth of over $3 Trillion dollars. The top 1 percent in the United States own roughly 40 percent of the nations wealth while the bottom 80 percent own only 7 percent.
