I still find it hard to believe that giving $8,500,000,000,000.00 mostly to the richest 1% of the country is actually going to do more to help regular people keep their jobs, pay for their food and clothing, and compensate for their higher mortgages than just sending out $28,300 checks to every man, woman, and child in the country.
Not that I think that this would be the right way of doing it, but it would probably have fewer long-term negative consequences, since most of that money would actually be spent instead of quickly being shoved into an overseas bank account to wait until the economy gets better on its own.
