Wow wonder what brought that on
Sounds like they are trying to suppress/hide something? Very strange behavior for a nation to kick them out like this.
So, should each of us expect a $1,000 check soon?

The proposal still has to clear the House and the Senate, and in the press conference they mentioned the need to establish a means-testing mechanism.
Shopping update:
My parents reported that there was still no toilet paper, but also no potatoes, ground beef, or chicken (in which my dad had finally held interest in trying to pick up just in case).
They did however pick up a 7 pound Boston Butt. Instead of cube steak we're going to have barbequed pork sometime later this week. It'll be cooked in the crock pot and should be good if it's like what he's done with brisket before.
They will try Sprouts later this week for more stuff.
Geez it’s not slowing down there. Dang

This should be expanded to non essential retail stores, malls, and so on.
It's just a short term solution but will definitely help those in need.I get it but it’s dumb and won’t help.

Make sure you invest in a company that will1k is a very short term solution. I’m just not a fan of bailouts for anyone especially big companies that don’t save profits.

likely see a bailoutI’m thinking about the airline/hotel industry as they seem top priority right now for some reason
All are still super cheap right now, but they could fall even further. I don’t listen to advice so I may try to catch the falling knife on Friday.Airlines, hotels, oil, etc are all good picks.

Tell that to the hourly worker that gets no paid sick days or vacation time. The one that does not get paid if not working. $ 1000 will absolutely help for a couple of weeks supplies versus nothing.I get it but it’s dumb and won’t help.

One of the proposals being floated in the House would give $1,000 per each adult and $500 per each child in a household - and that would be a monthly disbursement for the duration of the crisis, not just a one-off payment.

Why don’t they just pull it out of the state gas tax funds that clearly don’t/didn’t go towards fixing the roads?My question is where is this money going to come from? You're looking at 330M Americans, the cost of this would be 200-300 billion a month which is an insane amount of money especially if they do this for 2-3 months.
I can't see that happening. That is 3000 per family of 4. Let's say there's 80MM familys of 4. That would work out to 240 Billion per month just for this (just with a quick head estimate). Do you guys think they would really do that?One of the proposals being floated in the House would give $1,000 per each adult and $500 per each child in a household - and that would be a monthly disbursement for the duration of the crisis, not just a one-off payment.
We never question this when we talk about paying for wars, bailing out banks, building our stupid wall, etc. but now when it comes to actually handing cash to citizens to help stimulate the economy from the bottom up, we wonder where that money comes from?My question is where is this money going to come from?
