There is no point in another stimulus until we can go back to work and be out and about. In fact they are not stimulus at this point they are lifelines, or life-rafts. Once we have lifted restrictions and are actively encourage to go out and about, then we can see fairly quickly which areas of the economy are likely to recover well and which ones will take more time and then the "Stimulus" can be better directed (As well as government can).
Disagree. Well funded and expanded unemployment, plus the checks are going to keep a lot of people on time with their bills.
You do not want a surge of delinquency and homelessness.
No. Obviously infinitely printing money is ******ed. But if we need a second stimulus while we wait for approved treatments in lieu of a vaccine so be it.
I don't think we'll need much more time than that, but if we do, the printing machine won't stop the amount of hurt coming.
