  1. If they base it on 2019 returns, then in what way is it a Covid stimulus? It's just helping people who were low-income BEFORE Covid. What about all the people whose income dropped after that?

    1. If your income dropped below that level in 2020 you would also be eligible for the stimulus.

  2. Good Point there. I wonder if they just practicly don't have acces to the 2020 returns yet, so it's the closest shot? However I hear you.

  3. Wouldnt this be raising the threshold? it wouldnt allow couples making 150,000 to receive it anymore, only those making less than 100k...

  4. if they don't base that on family size they are idiots, a family making over 100k with bunch of kids is has less money than a couple making 100k without kids, (family size also adds variables..) hard to see why consistently low income families that are on all the programs, maxing out food stamps etc... should also get this, but a middle class working family, not getting thousands from programs shouldn't be included... after its all added up(taxes, insurance, hud, snap, heap..), it very probable the low income family is walking away with more than the middle class family

    1. How dare you call Democrats idiots. No matter what Democrats do, they are still better than your idol Donald Trump who tweets and golfs all day and makes peace with the Arabs without first placating the Palestinians.

    2. If you would vote Democrat, the Democrats would give you money too. But only people making under $50k vote Democrat. So there.

    3. Hate to say it, but Republicans are guilty of this too when they removed SALT tax deductions, which primarily effected Dem areas
