Rent moratoriums, federal enhanced unemployment, suspension of payments on student loans, PPP money for businesses (including very small businesses).
Where I was living at the time, unemployment plus the Fed payment put people at over $1000/week in paychecks. A lot of them were people who worked part time at bars and restaurants.
Anyone making $25/an hour could get the same paycheck and never leave home.

PPP money was from Trump.
But no, for workers, relying on a unemployment paycheck that pays a fraction of your former income even with the enhancement really let people buy $100,000 cars and put down a $50,000 down payment on a new home.
How stupid are you?

Are you, or are you not, the Drudge Retort poster known as JeffJ, who was thrown off of the Retort and had to come crawling back as "Bellringer"?
Are you brave enough to respond?
Or, are you just a typical MAGA coward?
(JeffJ has me plonked. So, while he can't see my posts, I can see his. And everyone else can see this response... but he can't! Which means he won't respond, making him look like he really is JeffJ! - lather, rinse, repeat...)
