they've been bailing out banks for years too. has anyone "learned their lesson"?
people who do not have jobs will be effected. How will the government help them?
The banks repaid those loans with interest. Are individuals going to repay the money they receive?
how will the government help those without jobs and without healthcace?
No they did not.
right wing lie.
and if the did, where did the money go? did it go back to the people they stole it from?
They will continue to receive food stamps, housing assistance, WIC, welfare, Medicaid, unemployment compensation, free school breakfasts and lunches, .... If they have no jobs they are not losing anything due to the crisis.
The banks repaid those loans with interest. Are individuals going to repay the money they receive?
welfare and Medicaid.....
President Obama:
"We got back every dime used to rescue the banks," he told the crowd gathered Oct. 18 in Victory Park. "We made that happen."
PolitiFact Checking President Obama's statement:
"But, the fact remains, due to interest, dividends and other revenue streams, the government has received more money back ($266.7 billion, according to the Treasury) than it handed out to banks under the bailout law ($245.2 billion). We rate this claim Mostly True."
The money went back into the treasury where it came from.
so, if they didn't qualify for welfare or medicaid in the past, the government will qualify them now?
if they don't qualify they don't qualify.......why should you give welfare or medicaid to people who don't qualify?......
the racist right already wants government to give the stimulus to business's only and they distribute to employees.
who will be left out? the racist right is about exclusion. who will they exclude from receiving that 1000 check?
Andrew Yang is a moron.
So let me understand this asinine theory; we will forcefully extract $1 trillion dollars from those who actually earn money so that the Government can re-distribute it to people who have done NOTHING to earn it. And you think this leads to great outcomes?
You are further evidence of how badly our left leaning educational establishment has failed society and graduates nothing but idiots.
Don't you have anything better to do? Shouldn't you be stocking up on canned beans or something?
You give me a thousand, and I'll give you a thousand. Brilliant! We have stimulated the economy, vote Democrat.
how will the government help them if they contract the virus?
Not everyone qualifies for welfare
The government thinks if you make 1,4501 a YEAR you make too much to qualify for welfare and food stamps.
If you collect unemployment you get about 1,800 a month so you don't qualify for medicaid, welfare, or food stamps.
Collecting unemployment doesn't automatically mean you qualify for healthcare and food stamps,
This is in CA with the maximum award being 1,4500. some don't qualify for the max.
How will the government help these people.
If you ever ventured outside of you little bubbles........you might learn something.
