            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | $600 or whatever that's the carrot.  What is the stick?  Why are they giving away money?  I can think of both nefarious and humanitarian motivations for stimulus.  But I have no evidence or insight to back them up.  Thats why I am asking.  Inflation, for better or worse, seems high.  If we are getting money that's great but the cost of this free money is high debt and a high inflation rate?  Is that going to be a double whammie, later??? | 12/19/2020 9:11:49 PM | 
		
            | Walking Man | formerly RGG | I completely agree Grinchy. We cannot afford to keep cheapening our money by taking on unnecessary debt. That is the main reason I call myself conservative. The stick ? Oh, it is out there. The Biden administration is going to "stick it to us" every way they can I think. lol | 12/19/2020 10:05:27 PM | 
		
            | Iowegian | Anamosa, IA  [email protected] | They are borrowing a huge amount of money in our name, giving us a tiny dab of it and giving the rest to the big businesses.  It is our money, so give it to us. | 12/23/2020 5:47:06 PM | 
		
            | Little Ketchup | Grittyville, WA | I love that Trump vetoed the $600 crumbs-too-small-for a mouse trickle down.  $2000 would show real concern.  It's not free money though!!!  Its all borrowed money.  We really need to just print some money without borrowing it. | 12/23/2020 7:41:26 PM |
