Are the new checks still going to be based on 2019 taxes? Bad idea! Still filed jointly last year due to divorce agreement and filed in Feb - no idea about the stimulus then, or the pandemic for that matter. Unemployed divorced mom of an online learner as of now, but no check?! What a joke.

| Socialist deficit stimulus when the GOP is in power. Austerity when GOP is out of power. |
It is strange. But how else are they going to determine income? |
Instead of wasting five minutes of your life posting this, you could have actually read about the CARES Act instead. Let me summarize some of the most relevant information you seem to be missing. 1. The stimulus checks were an advanced refund on 2020 taxes, estimated from 2019 taxes. 2. If your 2020 income is too high to receive the stimulus check but you qualified based on your 2019 income, you don't have to pay it back. 3. If your 2019 income was too high to qualify for a stimulus check, but your 2020 was low enough to qualify for a stimulus check, you will receive it when you file 2020 taxes in 2021. https://taxfoundation.org/federal-coronavirus-relief-bill-cares-act/ |

Toomey’s stupid idea to limit the Fed during an economic collapse is effing everything up. Senior lawmakers hit major roadblock over GOP plan to limit Federal Reserve, imperiling weekend deal for emergency relief package https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2020/12/19/stimulus-talks-race-against-government-shutddown-deadline/ |

Okay...Trump isn't even in negotiations. Hasn't been - ever. In the past 3 days McConnell has personally met (via audio/Zoom) with Pelosi at least 4 times. Trump isn't doing squat other than whining. |
Exec branch and potus has zero influence over stim checks or stim legislation? |
You should know by now that this particular POTUS is an idiot and spends more time on the golf course than on actually doing his damned job. |

Aren't the parasites the people who think they should receive money for doing nothing? So what if Trump thinks this is a good idea - when did he become the model for sound financial management? Of course he is willing to run future generations into trillions more of debt if it makes him a little more popular. Let's definitely provide assistance for people who can't work or operate there business due to the pandemic but the sooner we end this latest entitlement mentality the better. The money saved can be used for the Biden Infrastructure Program where we put people to work actually doing something productive and beneficial to everyone. |
