Looks like my payment just direct deposited into my account, $1200 as promised. I can't help but feel the Stimulus package has utterly destroyed the U.S.A for years to come. How much did the wealthy receive? $3000?
High income-earners will not be receiving stimulus checks. The ultra-rich/connected will get money from the govt. in other ways -- and a lot more than three grand.
That's a tough one man. I could return it because I've been lucky enough to keep working. Other people, on the other hand, who need the money, don't have that option. What do we get for returning the money? Tax break? Debt forgiveness?
Is it just Democrats? Or might it be people who concern themselves with the direction the country is headed towards? This F*cker in office seems to be more concerned with how well his eyes are shielded in his tanning bed, as well as how high his ratings are like he is still on Shark Tank or The Apprentice.
Terrorist Democrats, are you serious? Do you not have an ounce of independent thought?
“The fcker in office”? What is the matter with you? show some respect if that’s even possible. He doesn’t seem concerned with any of those things, the terrorist Democrats however are hell bent on getting him back for winning in 2016 and they don’t care who loses their job or who dies along the way. You should be utterly ashamed of yourself for supporting them. Shame, shame, shame.
What? Respect? You will get none of it from myself for this POS in POTUS. Notice if we erase the T and the U it fits perfectly. POTUS - TU= POS. Any questions?
You sound like a grade school kid who thinks if someone is prez he MUST be a good person. I can't see how anyone can observe djt's behavior and not conclude he's a Baby in a Suit. He's petulant and needy, and that's just skimming the surface. Your rhetoric is mind-blowingly shallow, "terrorist Democrats." How about McConnell holding up Obana's Supreme Court nomination just because he could get away with it? How about the Citizens's United decision that allows corporations to spend as much money as they like to influence elections? That's terrorism on democracy. All you do is throw around loose talk to demonize the party that represents the under class citizen. Is that what you are afraid of, real people having dignity in the USA?
"I can't see how anyone can observe djt's behavior and not conclude he's a Baby in a Suit. He's petulant and needy, and that's just skimming the surface. "
That's merely your subjective opinion and it doesn't deserve any consideration. I thought the same way about our former joke of a President. Get over it.
"How about McConnell holding up Obana's Supreme Court nomination just because he could get away with it?"
Ha, are you seriously bitching about someone holding up a Supreme Court Nomination??? Comical irony alert. And I remember that and he had serious concerns about the nominees character and integrity, it was his duty.
The Democrats are terrorists, they are willing to destroy the country so they don't have to admit they were wrong, they would rather people die as long as they can blame it on the President.
"All you do is throw around loose talk to demonize the party that represents the under class citizen."
Just giving you the same treatment Obama and the Democrats gave Republicans from 09-16. If you can't take it then don't dish it out because what goes around comes around. You are a piece of human garbage and you are a terrorist. The United States didn't have any dignity from 09-16, all President Trump is doing is returning the dignity that we lost during the reign of Obummer.
Terrorist Democrats are spot on....they hated trump so much they wished a recession on the American people.
Some on the fbi were worried trump derangement syndrome would cause some of their employees to look the other way during a terrorist attack.
Then they could say a terror attack happened under trump.
For 3 years they worked on impeachment rather then for the people.
Trump called for a travel ban from China.
And Democrats do the exact opposite..Pelosi the following day 3 weeks ago was in china town NY telling eveyone to come and eat and shop.
24 hrs later doctors were telling new Yorkers to stay the hell out of China town.
I agree, the Democrats are some very sick and twisted individuals, they need mental health real quickly. What's even more disturbing is there are still plenty of Democrats in Congress. They don't want to work with the President, they will be against whatever he is for, they care more about their own personal egos than people's lives. I personally think he should throw all of them in prison if they aren't willing to play ball and get in line.
People who think like you are dangerous. I don't know what trauma happened in your life to be this way but god forbid this is a snapshot of regular Americans. Very disturbing.
Meanwhile, Neo Nazis, Aryan Nations, Phineas Priesthood and The Church of the Sons of Yahweh will show up in droves and vote for T-rump and the Republicans, once again.
You think normal people will align with those groups?
Terrorist Democrats are spot on....they hated trump so much they wished a recession on the American people.
Bwahahaahahahahahahahahahahaha! Yup, Dems closed their eyes and clicked their heels three times and said "There's nothing like a good recession!" And just like that - Dems, their loved ones, their families, friends and neighbors lost everything in their '409k gains of the past three years' as well as their jobs and income. Just to make T-rump look bad - you got it!
What we really wished for was that he would have the good sense to resign. I guess we didn't wish hard enough for that

He publicly stated he votes democrat. I don't care what he or anybody is registered as, but rather how they cast their vote. I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......Ignorant much? Stupid much?
He's not a democrat. He's a libertarian. Don't know how else to explain that to you. He's always been a proud libertarian, and makes no secret about it.
What part of "actions speak louder than" did you FAIL to understand?
What part of "I don't care what he or anybody is registered as" did you FAIL to understand?
If you want to hide behind how he's registered, than it only shows how desperate you are just to win a pointless argument. Whatever makes you happy. Pathetic much? Ignorant much?
When a person cast their vote, that is their "action" in exercising their voice. I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....
Did the kommissar not give you a brain when you were in the indoctrination line? I mean, how stupid are you? How many times do I have to tell you that your freestylin' sucks. Stick with your indoctrinated scripted responses only.
If a person is registered as whatever and the persons votes however, which one is the "action"? The whatever, or the however? I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......
He said he cast his vote - you didn't see him do it. Your theory: action is stronger than words. There was no action witnessed, just words heard. This is coming from your own theory.
I said, "actions speak louder than". It's a very common phrase, just FYI. I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....
Go out and get some life lessons. Read a book. Alice the Fairy is always available to your 24/7 via youtube.
There was no action witnessed? As if the action needs to be witnessed in the first place. I mean, how stupid is that?
Plants require water, yes? If I see my neighbor's plant in the window and after a year, I still see it in the window, but I never seen the plant watered ever, just because I didn't WITNESS IT doesn't mean it didn't happen, yes? That's a pretty safe assumption yes? Logical, yes?
So if Maher routinely rails against Trump and rails against repubs, while not doing so to dems in similar situations, what do you think he is? The youtube video I showed, he said he's a democrat.
In this case, his ACTIONS and his WORDS are that he's a democrat. I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......
Stick to your indoctrinated scripted responses, dunce dogdump. Now nod your head and say d'oh. Again.
Look at the dates of my link and your link. Which one is more recent? Thus, which one is more relevant to the way he votes? I mean, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........
Seriously, go back into the corner and put your dunce cap back on. Remember, the dunce isn't to remind people that your stupid, it's to remind you. Now nod your head and say, d'oh!
I was thinking about the wealthy people. They will be using their gifted money strategically. I will do the same. I can pay off 3 credit cards with the money.
Because they are all against socialism - as they remind us time and time again on this forum. They don't believe in the government helping anyone in need - that's why they voted for T-rump.
So how many are going to stand up for what they believe in and refuse the checks from the new socialist named T-rump?
Do you realize this is exactly what T-rump and T-rumptards stand firmly against? If you don't, just ask 'socialist' Sanders and his 'socialist' supporters. They mocked Sanders for wanting the government to give away money to those in need. They cried for less government involvement their daily lives - not more. And what's T-rump doing now? He's acting like a socialist in every way.
What does this blurp actually mean? Do you know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid? Free schooling in what area? College..Elementary..Middle School..High School?
It's not socialism, at least for me it isn't. I paid far more than $1200 in income taxes so for me it's a tax cut more than anything. Now you on the other hand I doubt you even pay taxes so yes it's welfare in your case. Not being a hypocrite at all, you are just an entitled, unappreciative hater doggie style.
No matter how you twist it to form your T-rump narrative (tax cut? LOL) , it's still socialism. As Sarah Palin taught us in 2008 - you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. T-rumpers can cash that socialist check and be a hypocrite, or they can return it to the government. We know what you're doing with it.
It’s not Socialism! It’s giving me back some of the money I earned which the government took to give to other people. It’s called “freebies”. From my earned pocket to their unearned pockets!
Well, truth always wins. Do you believe the government as an entity has its own funds? Or do you believe the government takes a part of a person’s earned income for its coffers? We pay taxes, but receive no return.
To sum up, the Relief Fund Package is giving back to the people some of the funds which they earned and then were confiscated by the government. Socialism kicks into gear when the government gives those confiscated funds to those who have not earned and are living off of the taxpayers mammary glands.
Yes, we expect to get a return on our taxes. You conservatives say we can't afford the return. Imagine that. We spent it all on invasions and bailing out the rich. We can always afford that.
Your time isn't worth much. If your view of how the country works is this limited and simplistic, what's the point of having a debate? Again, I thought you were an elder states person, but more and more you just sound like a crank who should have better things to do than get on social forums.
Considering it was my money to begin with it’s not socialism, he’s just giving the tax payers a little break during these hard times. All he did was lessen our tax burden. But don’t worry kid, you got an extra welfare check so why don’t you say thank you rather than pitching a fit
Nope it is my money, I paid more than that in income taxes, he' s just giving me a little bit of my money back. I know that's a hard concept for someone like you who doesn't even pay taxes to wrap your tiny brain around but you need to just trust me on this, I'm a lot smarter than you are.
Well he hasn't denied my accusations that he's a leach off the tax payers so I'm going with no Doggie Style doesn't work, earn an income or pay income taxes.
Thanks for replying. I don’t understand his mind set. He wants the government (taxpayers) to pay for everything...from cradle to grave and “Beyond to Infinity”! He doesn’t seem to grasp Socialism does not work, never has worked for the betterment.
I’m old enough to recall when women had to leave to work outside the home. “The Great Society Program” resulted in higher taxes therefore they had to find a job, babysitting, take in ironing, etc. to make ends meet.
As Margaret Thatcher said “The problem with Socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.”
Then when a program of austerity is put into place...the riots begin. So what do the foreign governments do? They raise taxes to quell the riots.
Exactly, socialism has never been successful yet he's willing to implement a system he knows that won't work and will harm the country all so his lazy ass doesn't have to do anything, he's a real piece of shit.
I don’t think so, because the dipshit wouldn’t be able to post on here all day everyday about illogical biased nonsense if he had an actual job. He’s definitely been sucking from the government teat for years. That’s why he’s so loyal to socialism, and is rooting for a virus to destroy our country.
It’s amazing what an unhealthy obsession with extremist politics can do to a person. It’s pretty pathetic.
Thanks for replying. I do agree with you in your belief he and other extreme lefties want the country to fail in order to keep the no brains Pelosi, the lying Schumer, and “What do I do now?” Biden in power. All of them are hoping against hope we are in a deep recession in order to oust Trump.
I thought the 2016 election was one of the most important in the country’s history...not so...2020 is!
He does us all a service because a day doesn't go by when trump doesn't show what a needy narcissist and thoughtless person he is. He doesn't care about this country, for him it's a deluded popularity contest. He thinks he's a very stable genius, and comically sets about proving he's just the opposite. I say comically except so many of the consequences are so damaging, he's been a real danger to society and democracy. I don't understand how anyone with an education based on critical thinking does not see him for the clown that he is. He wants to be a dictator, and some people seem just fine with it. Astonishing.
First of all, let's assume you're correct for argument purposes? Why does it bother you so much? Actions speak louder than. Now tell me what actions he's done while president you find so damaging?
You talk about narcissist and thoughtless, what about Pelosi? Did you see her $24K fridge? You thinking tearing up the state of the union address was tactful and professional, pray tell? How come she get's a pass, snowflake?
Who cares if thinks he's a "stable genius" or not. Why can't you base your assessment on the actions he does rather than your preconceived notions?
How can you be so blatantly Ignorant, when you yourself have FAILED to exercise any critical thinking on your own? What an absolute joke that is.
You're indoctrinated. The pathetic thing is that you don't even know you're indoctrinated. Truly pathetic, snowflake.
I do work. Currently I work from home, since I'm able to with my employer. About two months ago I even posted about a work-related study I participated in for a week.
Do you work ? I don't think so. I know MovieChatUser and sut does not.
Good for you! I at one time also worked at home after many years of working outside the home. I no longer work outside the home...retired darn it! I miss working in the field I was in.
I've been working from home for the past three weeks when my employer asked everyone to work remotely. It takes getting used to - don't know if I could do this permanently.
I suppose it’s because you don’t seem to care how high taxes go resulting in more being taken from our earned money. You don’t seem to care about the dead beats in society who continue to take and take. You don’t seem to care about those who game the system. You would rather rant about Trump instead of the illegals who receive better care than your own US citizens.
Instead of ranting about Trump, why not blast your Democrat governors and mayors releasing prisoners including rapists and child molesters. LA is expecting a huge crime wave due to 4,000 being released. Frankly, I would rather die from the Covid-19 than to be murdered. Blast them for enacting Sanctuary Cities and not co-operating with law enforcement. I could go on, but I think you get the gist of my reply.
Such a beautiful, Christian-valued post by you, huh? So much empathy for those who are suffering, huh? What a typical cold-hearted T-rumptard you are. Not caring about anyone but yourself because you see greed as good, and money is your God.
Listen! Or better yet...read. My reply had nothing to do with my Christian values. I didn’t insult you so please don’t insult me. I’ve replied many times to you, which you tend to ignore, my giving of self to those in need. It’s not up to government, or shouldn’t be, to answer to the needs of those who are in dire straits.
As it so happens I currently have half a truck load of food & clothing (some with tags attached) to donate to The Salvation Army & the Animal Shelter. Have you ever delivered Meals on Wheels? I have. Have you ever donated to disasters like Katrina? I have. Have you ever purchased someone’s meds? I have. Have you ever donated to our Veteran’s causes? I have. I’ve stood in line to get commodities for the Meals on Wheels folks. Have you? Without a doubt there were greedy ones driving up in their fancy motor homes just because the stuff was free!
You didn’t reply to me...you just attacked me because I’m sick and tired of those and your ilk who care more for illegals than your own country citizens. Just because I see illegals with their anchor babies getting better care than my grandkids doesn’t make me cold hearted. It pisses me off! I’ve given the damn government more than it deserves only to see your kind pity law breakers. Only to see your kind pay people to clean sidewalks daily of caca & needles left behind by deadbeats. Only to see a surfer kid living off the dole, eating lobster at my expense. Only to see sorry ass parents leave it up to schools (taxpayers) to feed their kids. I’m not referring to those who are truly needy. I’m referring to those who have the fancy cars, the wide-screen tvs, the weekly mani-peds, the ones who feel entitled to anything they can get.
So you can take your fake holier than thou attitude and shove it where the sun don’t shine! You disgust me. You and your kind who do nothing, but tell others what they should do. As I wrote before you are a hypocritical charlatan. You don’t fool me one little bit!
Listen! Or better yet...read. My reply had nothing to do with my Christian values.
Your reply has EVERYTHING to do with your personal beliefs, which your so-called 'Christian values' shape and form. EVERYTHING - and I've called you out on it.
Now that your true self has come out for the world to see once again, you're going to try to worm your way out of this, and hide behind your fake innocence. We all can see what a cold heart you have just from your posts.
You disgust me. You and your kind do nothing but pass judgement on those less fortunate than you and then try to find the means to justify it. You really are despicable.

First of all, you have no empathy. Everything you've shown or said is complete phoniness. I know it. You know it. Everybody knows it. Your constant politicize the pandemic. You tee-hee like a fairy at people dying, savings and jobs lost. Why? Simply because it fits your narrative. Truly despicable.
So what have you done? Have you opened your home and assets to the poor and desperate illegals, yes or no? They've been in cages since THE OBAMA ERA, so you've had plenty of time to have opened your "caring heart". Did you? How many illegal families have you sponsored? How many are you currently sponsoring? That's right. ZERO. You haven't done a damn thing other than bitch and whine about.
Then again, you couldn't even sponsor a family even if you wanted to because you would need your parent's permission, yes? As Jordan Petersen said, "Clean up your room." Take responsibility for yourself before trying to claim responsibility for others.
So spare everybody you're sanctimonious chepooka. It's all fake and it always was. All you care about is the Orange Man Bad scorecard. That has been obvious since day one. Grow up! Go get some life lessons rather than dwell on your vile and pointless vitriol.
Doggie never answers with facts. I wrote prior he lives, eats and sleeps his hatred of Trump and his voters. So when challenged the only way he knows how to face the truth is to attack the messenger! He’s such a pious phony! His holier than thou attitude sickens me to no end. I truly believe he has an evil soul!
No he doesn't. He's a one note pony and it's Orange Man Bad propaganda. I encountered his phony sanctimony early on and his words do not match his actions.
I do believe he doesn't care about the collateral damage as long as his narrative can be advanced. That is nothing less than pathetic. To wallow in venomous vitriol does nobody any good.
And yet in the other thread, snowflake snepts said his serving a purpose! Seriously? Spreading vitriolic propaganda is a purpose? That's like saying having syphilis serves a purpose. How stupid is that?
It's unfortunate that these people are so far gone and are just wasters.
Did you read my lengthy reply to him? If so, do you not agree his reply came from TDS? It was nonsensical and was not responsive to my post.
Serving a purpose? Pray tell, what? An analogy would be the Covid-19 taking out the over 65 crowd due to us being a burden!
He never blasts the far-left Dems and their inane actions. “Visit Chinatown. It’s safe! You’re racist if you don’t!” “Release the prisoners...to quell the virus!” Crime be damned! It’s more important to keep felons safe from the virus than to keep people safe from the crime. How sane is that?
I did. Everything about dogdump is fueled by TDS. Even Dr. Dre of Dr. Nick or Dr. Pepper could diagnosis that in him.
Look at the dems. Bernie, Biden, Lizzy, Pelosi, Bloomberg, Steyer, etc. All in the 1%. Is there any outrage about their wealth? None. Absolutely zero. That's all you need to show people like dogdump and dunces that they are nothing but partisan hacks indoctrinated to the cause and blinded from the truth.
As INGSOC states, Ignorance is Strength. They cannot accept truth and facts so they must deny it and Ignore it. What's so stupid is that these people haven't even realized they've been indoctrinated. Astoundingly naive. Incredibly stupid. Blazing idiots. Mindless lemmings.
We must not forget the loud mouth witch, Maxine Walters! She is supposed to represent one of the poorest districts in the country, yet she lives in a million dollar home! But, like so many others her purpose is “Impeach 45!” The radical Dems are all talk, and want to keep their constituents on the proverbial plantation! They want to keep them in poverty for the votes. If they had good paying jobs they would see how much is confiscated from their paycheck by the government.
Cal dems are horrid. Pelosi, gassy Swalwell, Feinstein, lying and banging her way to the top, Kamala Harris, Bug-eyed Schiff, Lying Ted Lieu, Miss Throuple lasted only a few months, but Waters is a staple.
She's useless and corrupt. Took bank bailout money specifically so her husband's small bank would get paid. What a joke.
You're supposed to live in the district you represent, yet she lives right on the outskirts of her district where the neighborhood is 1000 times better. She's a blazing hypocrite. Always has been and always will be. And dumb as a plank.
Looks like your projecting, once again. You do this all the time when I call you out and let the world know what an evil human being with a black heart you really are. So damn predictable.
WOW! This is what you got from my lengthy reply?😱
How am I trying to worm out of what? How do you see a cold heart from what I wrote? I didn’t pass judgement on those who are truly needy...just those who are capable of working, but find it easier to live off the taxpayers.
“They hate him who reproves in the gate,
And they abhor him who speaks with integrity.”
“So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?”
“A false witness who utters lies,
And one who spreads strife among brothers.”
As I wrote prior: You see and believe what you want...which causes you to belie the written truths. You are incapable to reply without ad hominem attacks.
You are the despicable one. The one with the fake, pious, holier than thou attitude.
“To speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people.“
High income earners will get the lion's share, but the ones we're talking about are big business owners. And they will receive more than thousands. It's a $2.2 trillion stimulus and only about $300 billion is going to these $1200 checks which leaves $1.9 trillion going to whoever Trump and Mnuchin deem worthy.
This is great news for Melania, Ivanka, Eric, Jared, Donnie Diapers, The red-headed stepchild (Tiffany), etc. They will be profiting nicely off this crisis.
I don't live in the US, but am still waiting to be contacted by the welfare office to set me up for stimulus covid payment. I get texts from them reminding me not to call, not to reply by sms and that they will call me. Over 3 weeks now.
Well I don't think the wealthy got anything but if you got a check you should be thankful and not pitching a fit that someone else got more than you did. Especially when you don't pay taxes to begin with.
These psychotic liberal extremists’ talking points are beyond any rational thought. Haha. I gave up trying to discuss anything with them.
Their entire narrative and belief system is based on their warped view that these “villainous” wealthy people (because in these morons’ minds’ if you have more money than them you are a villain) should not be able to keep what they worked hard for and earned, and instead the wealthy people’s money should be given to them...for, you know, doing nothing. That’s Bernie Sanders, that’s AOC...that’s socialism.
I will never be able to wrap my head around that concept, and how someone can actually think they are owed money that someone else worked for, for no reason at all. It unbelievable, pathetic, and sad.
But yeah, original point, from what I read, if you make more than $99,000 a year you do not get a stimulus check, regardless of what these mindless nutjobs (sorry if the word “job” offends any of them) are saying on here. For the people who actually work and pay taxes, this would basically be a second tax refund to help them while all of this is going on.
These psychotic liberal extremists are a bunch of crybabies playing the victim. They don't think it's fair that some people have things that they don't and instead of trying to work to get up to that level they pitch a fit and demand that people give them their hard earned money. Most of them are on welfare not because they need it but because they are too lazy to work. This stimulus check is nothing more than a tax refund plain and simple.
“Here’s the bad news: Not everyone will qualify for a relief check.
The maximum amount you can receive is $1,200, or if married filing jointly, $2,400 per couple. That amount phases out for single filers with an AGI between $75,000 and $99,000, joint filers with an AGI between $150,000 and $198,000 and heads of household with an AGI between $112,500 and $146,500.
Those who qualify for the $1,200 credit will also receive an additional $500 for each qualifying dependent 16 years old or younger.”
