I'm not "counting on" it in any way, but it's much better giving it to me than the government wasting it on fraud. I can make much better use of it than the government can.
A completely different thing. Those were "print out of thin air" checks, which were a part of the massive inflation crisis during the Autopen's term. Any "tariff checks" would NOT be "print out of thin air" checks, as they would basically be "dividend checks" from a portion of the tariff revenue that has already been received.
A complete and utter lie. The 1st one was $1,200, the 2nd one $600, and the 3rd one $1,400. All of them were less than $2,000.
Because the Autopen Regime created MASSIVE inflation, basically doubling the price of everything over the course of a few years.
For me, that amount (at $2.50/gal gasoline) would get me to work and back for a whole year (and I'd still have another $1,000 left over for personal driving). It's a significant amount. It could help people pay off their credit card debt. It could be 10 (give or take) trips to the grocery store. It could be getting a vehicle back in working order.
