Almost seems like that would be a better way to spend the 2.2 trillion.
Less than half of that amount would go to helping people. Most of it would go to helping corporations.
Just like Trump's tax cut scam, it's crumbs for the working class and a giant frosted wedding cake for the rich. And Democrats have caved, because they don't want to be portrayed as getting in the way of the crumbs.
$1200 per person? That wouldn't even pay for one of Moscow Mitch's suits. It's like the Coast Guard speeding up to a life raft, throwing the survivors a box of saltines, then speeding away.
