Feds refused to enforce the terms of the PPP loans. Ended up being open-ended grants to companies and individuals that did not meet/fit the qualifications.

I don't know, paying people MORE than they were making while working wasn't the smartest thing to do. They should have been paid the amount they were losing, but not more.

No one made more than they were working. It was a $1200 check. Once. That's less than most ppl make in a few weeks.

When you have the rich getting richer. You get mad saying "printing money" causes inflation.

So that means money is a limited resource.

If it's limited, and the rich get richer, that's less and less for the rest of us.

You seem to be brainwashed by propaganda thinking people got more than they did or something

My bad. I'm thinking about the EXTRA $600 per week people were being paid while on unemployment.

I never got a stimulus check, but never needed it. My job didn't change at all during the pandemic.

Yeah idk about the 600 extra weekly unemployment.

Though I would be for a universal basic income for qualified in individuals, specifically if the only jobs available are like Walmart or family dollar bullshit that under pays and doesn't provide benefits.

But the system will be forever broken until it gets bad enough, the masses feel the need to revolt, or enough bad actors are voted out of Washington.

your comments here are either very ignorant, or outright malicious. I believe the former.

You really shouldn't be. I'd be happy for them. Just let it go.
