Person A: Hi. Do you want $1200 to help with what’s going on?
Democrat: No thanks. I’m smart!

Brilliant breakdown. All nuance accounted for. You should be in journalism.

That’s how ****ing simple it is

You probably wouldn't have gotten $1200 anyways. People under a certain income threshold would only get $500 under the GOP plan because they're not used to having money like the upper class is and they don't know how to handle it.

OH meets the criteria for the $1200 (based on what I've seen on the proposed bill anyhoo). Need to see what the Dems are cooking up in the House to see how it compares.

Anyone under 75G got $1200

That’s what the offered

Doesn’t matter what’s in the house because it will never pass

It’s like a sexy woman hit on you in a bar

You turned her down and then go back the next night

That **** doesn’t work - you strike while the iron is hot

Does the virus suck? How bout getting the virus diagnosis and your eviction notice on the same day?

From what I'm reading you need to make at least $23k to get the $1200.

It's based on 2018 taxes.

I wouldn't qualify and would most likely get half according to what I'm reading.

Which is why the Dems blocked it and even some Republicans opposed it with Mitt Romney, of all people, saying it punishes the poor.

ABC News said anyone making under 75

Lucem Ferre · 03-23-2020, 07:29 PM

Everywhere else is saying different. Only one source gave me the 23 number, but they all still say that lower income people won't get the full 1200.

Here's another source.
