    Alright Fez, enough people have responded. You can go ahead and drop your big “GOTCHA” statement now. Blow all our minds man.

    It's a fucking tax refund, why wouldn't I take it? It's my money, and if I don't take it, it will end up in Pelosi's bank account.

    Better still, why won't the Dems cut the check? Seems they're caught in another lie that has exposed their fake platform of being for the people.

    They're simply trying to pad the coffers of green companies that they hold stock in and tank the economy to achieve their ultimate goal of destroying the middle-class.

    Newsflash to Fez, socialism is stealing from the producers to subsidize the non-producers. Ever heard of Darwin? It's an equation that will always lead to extinction.

    What we have in this situation is just the opposite, drawing from the producers' savings account (money they paid in taxes on their income) to help them through a rough time.

    Whether you “need” the money or not, take it. Because who will put it to better use, you or back to the fucktards in our government ? If you don’t want it, go cash the check and hand out $100 to ten people who are struggling to buy food.

    No, it'll be dry. The government is going to bail it out.

    It will most likely be my 2020 tax return so yes I’ll keep it.

    This is just a trial run for if some idiot like Bernie ever wins. You think I'm busting my ass breathing isocyanates to fix cars if everyone gets the same paycheck?

    Yeah, no. If socialism happens soon I'm checking receipts at Walmart or something.....I'll slit peoples throats to get that job as boring as it may be.

    actually, the way things are going the question should be "would you prefer $1000 or 100 rolls of toilet paper"

    The purpose of UBI is not to cap everyone's income at the exact same number. Andrew Yang described his UBI proposal as "Capitalism that doesn't start at zero." Anything you make above the minimum is all yours, minus taxes of course.

    I object to the use of 'tards' in here. It refers to retards which is an unacceptable term for people like my now deceased sweet brother. Please don't denigrate his memory with that expression.

    Emergency aid isn’t socialism. Your premise is equally ridiculous to the ideas of the Republicans you can’t stop talking about.
