As far as I can tell it is basically the dumbest most convoluted thing that will help basically no one and make everything much worse for everyone, except if you are obscenely rich and own some giant bankrupt megacorp, which is exactly what I expected from the democrats.

if you were married it goes up to like $150k.

so let's see, we've got massive corporate bailouts going to the very rich,
a bit of free money for the "middle class" making up to a deece six point five figgies,
and a loan for the extremely poor people who can't use a tax credit

sounds like :patriot: to me

It hurts so bad to see the US government going with the most gutless and craven option every time. I don't know how to recalibrate my expectations without checking out and not paying attention, which is basically only possible because I have computer toucher levels of privilege

went out for a walk today around my neighborhood earlier than i usually do (i usually creep through the night).

everyone seems so happy right now. its a nice day out, around high 50s and low 60s. tons of people are out on their porches, smiling and waving at people as they pass. families were out on their lawns, some people just reading books.

if it weren’t for all the sickness and disaster you hear about on the news, this would be a postcard somewhere. getting similar vibes to the way people were during the big east coast blackout we had around 20 years ago

almost as if the american way of life is deeply, fundamentally unhealthy.

imagine what the world would be like if

- people only worked 20 hours a week
- the majority of people could work from home
- car traffic was cut down to like a tenth of normal
- people filled their lives with family and exercise instead of mindless consumption

and then imagine everyone also had free universal healthcare so that massive worry was just gone.

it's a goddamned utopia

I've been complaining for like a decade that there are millions and millions of people doing stupid bullshit work that literally only makes other people's lives worse and harder for absolutely no gain at all. They are doing these jobs because for some stupid bullshit reason we've decided that everyone needs to have a job that works them to death. Health insurance companies are a great example: completely useless things that solve a "free rider" problem that straight up does not exist.

I hope this puts a stop to that, but that's why these checks are so awful and lovely, a lot of people want that dumb poo poo to continue.
