    It’s just a check for double the COVID stimulus, before inflation, without the unlimited fraud of the PPP loans. In the grand scheme of a federal government that had $4.9t in revenue it’s significant but not insane.

    The unbelievable thing is that DOGE was claiming a $105b savings would pay for it. Even if they reached their goal of $1t it wouldn’t be enough.

    These people are just straight up too lazy to do basic math.

      No they’re not. They just know most Americans are.

      Assuming they could do the math in the first place, thanks to all the education cuts.
