Direct payments to individuals is the dumbest idea. That drives inflation faster than just about anything. As people are likely to spend it all vs save anything.
We need the Fed rate to stay this high or higher and stop handing out money to individuals. If you're going to do a stimulus it needs to be direct investment in infrastructure and other items to make workers more productive only. |

They must have very little confidence that the Fed will cut rates before Election Day, so they are moving to plan B - more free money! Which will of course require the Fed to hike rates, but that wouldn’t happen until after the election so who cares.

While I could certainly use $1400, I don't want it. It's not healthy for the economy. It will show good results in the short term, but once it's gone, the bill comes due. If this is true, that these checks are planned to come out, it will show the economy has rebounded for a few months, giving Biden a boost in the election. He'll pick up 3-5pts.
And that's all it is. It's a vote buying scheme. Look, I've been disabled since 2001, and my total income for a year is only $14,000, and I would use it to pay off a credit card that I've closed out. But, I don't want it. It's hurtful to the economy and the workers of our country. |

It appears that’s lost on you. It's not a flex at all. As I said, they'll do whatever the fuck they want regardless of your or my opinion on the matter. Remember this picture? This is from the 2008 bank bailout. Americans were overwhelmingly against any sort of bank bailout. Our overlords did exactly what they want because they don't give a shit what we think. And no amount of cutesy quotes around labels you think I'm going to care about will change that. If you don't want to use yours wisely to help you and yours survive what's inevitably coming, that's on you. Burn it. Wipe your ass with it. Wallpaper your reloading room in $1 bills. I don't give a damn.

JFC. Inching towards UBI.
Fucking millennial at work still doesn't comprehend how the COVID stimulus/unemployment+bonus 18 month vacation caused everything to get so expensive, he just thinks it's greedy grocery stores. I explained the whole thing to him, nobody worked, everybody spent money that didn't really exist, supply/demand, devaluation, inflation. Nope it's just greedy grocers. But then the older guys deny that all those shitty COVID policies started under Trump. It's really something. Lack of logic and an inability to comprehend cause and effect relationships. |
