You're skewing a bit. It isn't giving it ONLY to poor people. Because we all know that some of the people complaining loudest are poor themselves and inches from complete financial disaster from ANYTHING health related let alone Covid. It's if a certain groups of people get money AS well as themselves. Because THOSE people may benefit as well. As we've seen in past discussions, it's when others get things it's bad, because the people complaining don't see when THEY get things as bad, Or even as them getting things, it's things they deserved for being hard working Americans, as opposed to those lazy unreligious criminal types who have numerous children who made our country NOT great anymore.
Businesses who benefitted from tax breaks will happily take that gov't money, then cry they need another tax break when sales go down again.
Sowing the seeds of division for short term political gain, is going to cripple us long term.
The tribal obsession with "It's about me, F them" has screwed our country in so many different ways, I argue that's the next biggest thing we need to deal with after the pandemic.
