I have not seen any US or state bills passed for my state yet having ANY companies not charge full bills. As of right now my electric company said they still are charging full price they will just not disconnect, phone bill for Verizon is still full price and due on time, Rent for apartment complex is due on time or late fees will be given out. I have yet to see a single break for bills, all thats being talked about is giving US people $1,000.

the only talk I have read from official news sources is possibly 75k-100k.

I still don't quite understand how this makes much sense though because even people in that bracket and above have monthly obligations to pay for outside of profits and will lose their jobs/business and need to pay mortgage, car payments, other bills, etc... and not all of them have savings

They won't do this because most people won't spend it which is the whole point. You got people hoarding toilet paper, you think they're spending this grand you gave them? Just lmao.
Bro about half of full-time workers age 25-65 make 30k a year or less. They're immediately going to spend it.

And just like that, Trump supporters are all in favor of socialism. In all seriousness, it's gonna be hard to determine a salary cutoff for this since some person who makes six figures could be unemployed at this point and truly need it to stay afloat in the short term.

Just because we will accept the checks and spend them does not mean that all the sudden we love socialism.

It was more of a tongue-in-cheek thing which is why I followed it up with "in all seriousness". Everyone knows that our economic system is a combo of capitalism and socialism anyway.

I've seen you mention this several times now. What makes you think that layoffs are gonna be coming en masse for white collar workers?

Sending people checks, whether electronically or otherwise, does nothing if I can't go to the bar and spend it -- other than blowing up the deficit (the proposal for $1,000 would be over two hundred billion dollars alone!)

Not everybody is getting $1k, only those making less that $75,000. So 99% of the misc won't be getting that. Why worry about $1000 anyway?

local and state governments closing any sort of gathering over 10 people
im sure that will later be mandated to 0 people, or 5 like some countries
Loss of interaction with other businesses, most businesses dont just operate on a purely business to consumer level
Loss of income and ability to pay people for minimal "at home' work and needing to think long term damage control

I mean theres tons of reasons companies are going to start doing "lay offs"

Unless you are in the necessary medical fields or public service or grocery stores, your job security isnt too high right now. I have friends at Dell, Dentist offices, Dermatologists, nurses at private practices who have ALL been told next week is their last week of pay

My job is govt adjacent and pretty secure. As long as municipal govts are still an entity and the court system hasn't completely collapsed I'll be good. My wife works in the school system so she is pretty safe right now even though they've cancelled school the legislature passed funding to make sure all state employees get paid throughout this whole thing.

Most of my close friends are all in pretty safe employment sectors so I haven't heard anything like you're describing. If you're right this is gonna make 2008 seem like a booming economy

I'm good with socialism as long as I'm one of the people benefiting. What we're seeing right now is the exact reason why everyone says it sucks, it only benefits the super rich and the poor, normal people just get screwed.
