NormanConquestStimulas pisser
We are aware of all the pork that Pelosi + her ilk added on to the pkg. before they would sign. You look up HR 748 from 116th Congress + see where all (96%) of the money went that was supposed to help the American people. BTW, the money allocated would have given every eligible citizen over $6000.00 instead of $1200.00. It reminds me of the quote from Winston Churchill, "It is a very serious thing for a political creed or a political party when they are compelled in spite of themselves to hail national misfortunes as a means of advancing their cause."

Smokin JoeThe text of HR 748 says 600.00

NormanConquestSmoking Joe, what I have here shows the amount to be $6051.74. I find it hard to believe that the Government when only allocated to give away $600.00 would double that amount to the public rather than to spend on pet projects. And yes Peter I hope so too. There are so many out there that are dependant on social activity for their wages, I.E. restaurants, theatres, etc. I don't need it but I got one anyway so I just set it back to pay for this year's property taxes. Helluva note when no ones working that the taxes still increase. I have always failed to understand that because of their overspending that I should be responsible for the bill.
