Stimulus check 2020, should the disabled get it

In this case, it's insurance against further loss. Just like firefighters (the other stupid thing people call "socialism.")

Oh, is that the semantics of the day? 'Insurance'?

You explain it to yourself any way you see fit. It's socialism. I noticed you didn't address the taking of money from one group and giving it to others.

And for the record I think how teachers, firefighters and police are paid pensions is highly socialistic in nature.

As it's China buying them.

I call that a win.

China isn't even the largest foreign purchaser of our Treasury Bonds. The number one purchaser overall is the United States Taxpayer, you should educate yourself on this.

Even if that were true, they still have a better understanding of socialism than the Masons, apparently. Go play paddle-dick with someone else, brother. I am out of crayons.

Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) said on Monday that the United States should begin forcing China to “pay the burden and the cost incurred” by the U.S. due to the Wuhan coronavirus.

When did we get to vote on how much the Hollywood stars or sports players are paid??
If you want to go there, let me tell you the story of the stadium that was proposed to be built in NY city..
The one that had the city and state paying out the initial cost with the team not really paying any of it. The one they wanted to build in a city so built up that it would have required them to build it on a platform...
Have no idea if they ever built it, think we left the state before it was decided.

Nonsense. They are ensuring market liquidity by providing capital to the people who need to spend money to live. That is actually "insurance" toward making sure those bonds "payout" and literally the opposite of what you keep implying.

Oh, 'market liquidity'. You keep couching socialism with these highly inventive semantic phrases.

Maybe at some point you'll address who pays for it and who gets it and how they aren't all the same on both sides.

Yep, don't know if this is the right time to try and get it but it's coming!!!

Tell me again how the government handing out money is not socialism.

well in this case, where the whole country is in jeopardy just like in 1930, when the Government fed 12 million. i think it says so here,

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

I know. Let's all take our free money and have a night on the town. Keep those bars and restaurants going.

Oh...wait.

Everything the govt. has is taken from "someone else" Including their paychecks.

And for the most part those are all socialistic in nature. But this time it's okay for you since it's coming from your side of the aisle and your feelz are aligned with the program.

I think the amounts of money spent on celebrities and sports stars is absurd. I understand that this is how the free market and capitalism works (I guess). That doesn't mean I don't think it's absurd.

What's Trump haters solution then?

This should be riveting.

Says the poster who cannot even a simple yes or no questions. Guess using your crayons so often rendered you insensate to basic economics.

Oh, wow, Neo, was that you trying to disprove that United States Taxpayers buy the most bonds? Yeah, good luck forcing another country to buy our stuff. Call me when it works.

Oh Wow.

How about moving on to someone else instead of snip talking.

The question was 'show me how it isn't socialism'. Did you do that? No. You only gave me your rationalization for it.

It's why I take breaks from ATS.

One can put up with snip for only so long.

I answered your stupid question.

A stimulus is designed to float the market so that your bonds can be paid out later (when they are due). My understanding of economics isn't even remotely in question. Your trolling ability, however, has completely swallowed its own load.

It's free money after all.

Curious to see how many people bitch about the deficit after they cash their mooch money checks for this fiasco.
