The latest stimulus package will provide $1,200 checks to many Americans – and more for families – while making available hundreds of billions of dollars for companies to maintain payroll through the crisis. It significantly expands the nation’s unemployment safety net and it directs a huge infusion of cash to states and to hospitals and other medical facilities on the frontline fighting the pandemic.

    1. learn something about your government will ya? The IRS is just a machine that operates under the rules set by Congress. Stop blaming the IRS and start blaming your Senators and Reps. THEY are ones that blow.

    2. ^^ yea that’s definitely wrong. I’d like to see him tell a tax auditor to obey his commands as he wishes lmao

    1. Poor and Christians the poor will get nothing. Maybe someone needs to take their suffering out with a wave. Because these Demons will not give up power.

    1. Qanon loves Meuller and Rosenstine and Hank’s and Zukerburg and Podesta. Did Jacob run to China for his Adrenochrome service as “The Simpson’s?” Claimed to predict? Or did Matt lose his Majic?

  1. For all 300 million Americans the 2 trillion stimulus could give us all 6,000$ each….. but we all only get 1,200$ or less …… LOL !!!!

    1. Instead of going on YouTube and acting like a simpleton, go and actually see where the money is going. You omitted the blatant unemployment benefits improvement for one.

    2. @mrsme1234 Did you just call the Republicans socialists? AHAHAHAHA. You do know that Bernie’s campaign is based off of socialism right?

    3. @Jules Rootes Bernie’s a democratic socialist, the party formerly known as Republicans are corporate socialists.

    1. If you got direct deposit you get yours this week in next if you gotta wait in a check charge that to the game it can get lost in the mail or anything..

  2. GGs for the working class, and children 18 and up listed as dependents. Can’t even get 500 bucks 🤣 can we nuke all the politicians yet??

    1. James Jackson that is quite sad no reason to announce it tho that’s a lot of people my age. Now that won’t even get it…

    1. Not everyone will die only the strong will survive stop being weak minded we gone beat this thing they just filled a law suit against china for creating this virus use as a weapon so that means China has the cure as well no way they gone create a man made deadly weapon in not have the cure to save them selfs if needed too..

    2. And I’m sure even when that happens, there will still be chaps commenting random shenanigans on YouTube videos because apocalypse lyfe.

    3. Alright I have read tons of comments about this taking months. The latest estimations by everyone, not just those in government, is mid-late April at the latest. In 2008 it took 8 weeks but we have that to help speed it along as the process is already there this time.

      On top of that it is a wee bit more serious. What *can* take months is if they have to mail it because the person didn’t do their taxes electronically for payments *or* deposits with the IRS. For those it could be four months easily.

    1. Look at the illuminati holly wood NSA cia laughing at us? This is a sick country. They are all full of themselves.

  3. The asset stripping and fleecing of the American citizens act. ASFAC Get ready for digital currency that will only allow the elite to cheat.

    1. @Jared Watson Canada has over 37 million people the U.S. has over 333 million. But Canada’s GDP is under 2 trillion and ours is about 22 trillion. So, we got screwed again…

    2. I saw online that if things are still going the way they are in 6 weeks, another check will be sent, but that’s too much time, since it’s going to take weeks to receive it afterwards..

    3. Oh and how can they do that??? Well, no poverty, no huge population of unproductive citizens on welfare, NO defense budget, about 4 times the population per dollar of GDP vs the US, etc, etc. NOT apples to apples!

    4. @Martin Owens Well, it is. Canada has over 37 million people the U.S. has over 333 million. But Canada’s GDP is under 2 trillion and ours is about 22 trillion. Our defense budget is like 3%. This country has to ability to do it. We just spend 7 trillion in a month to save the rich so I think we can pull it off to save the other 99% of Americans. That is just a lie the powerful tell stupid people so that they will give them another 10 trillion by the end of the year and the rest of America can eat cake.

  4. Wait, so you’re telling me that a government institution in charge of something very important is sluggish? Wild.

    1. @luke schempf if your parent or parents claim you as a dependent then it doent matter what you filed as.

  5. US government : here’s some chum change to spend

    2020 Tax season : yea remember those $1200…….

  6. If they can’t get checks to everyone in a month then why even send them out it’s not worth it at all
