    1. @Filippa Leone Agree its horrific what happened in China and yes the need to take care of there people’s. Like I mentioned earlier my neighbor her child and husband n kids live with them also they are retired. Those are the neighbor I’m purchasing a car from so they can add there children a home on there property.

    2. @KID!’ovThe1TrueKING! News Thank you for all your kind information. I pray that somehow they will reduce the Real Estate taxes for certain people. But I will not hold my breath because I know where I am, and what it costs to be here. I am getting close to having my next home in Heaven. We are going through the “Labor Pains,” so it should not be long. I am glad to hear you are doing all right where you are. Why would you like to live in SC by the Appalachian mountains? Poverty is so great there, or have things changed?

    3. @Filippa Leone Your Very welcome Filippa.😊 I agree with you I myself waiting for Jesus return as you said I believe it won’t belong myself. I was raised in the Virginian mountain’s. I believe Jesus gave me this place for a reason and I’ve done so much here.I just hate city life I moved from the mountains to a city over 22 years i lived in the city with my 2 sons while they was in school had a accident there my son’s are in there 30s now. I Got a small amount of money on a lawsuit enough to pay a quarter for this place whole was over 30 thousand. Prayed for what I have now and I saw God moving in each step so unless he want’s me to get a great extreme offer if it’s meant to be i would. Yes there’s a lot of very small towns in the Appalachia Mountains. Yell probably not many there living with a lot but I’d be fine on that. God bless you and your family stay safe was a joy in chatting with you . I Do watch a lot one here and always commenting guess will run into you again your welcome to chat on my account anytime.

  1. It’s a real problem when the only thing separating majority of America from poverty is two or three missed paychecks.

    1. JackieFuckingChan I agree with you. But the problem is, domestic consumption is a super important driver for US economy. I don’t know how US economy will look like if people stop buying more things than necessary.

    2. @Bunny Hop yep, consumerism is 90% of the US economy. the shift wont happen over night, and a gradual shift away from that over the next 10 years would be a good thing. a country where everyone has a good savings account is a much stronger country than if everyone is in debt and a house full of worthless materialistic junk.

    3. Yet we are bailing out wall street to the sum of 10 trillion dollars with our tax money, our government is run by crooks.

    4. @TTony0503 corporations employ people. what dont you “corporations are evil” type people not get about that? walmart alone employs like 1.5m people. if it goes under then thats 1.5m more jobless people

  2. Funny how we are still waiting on our checks , weeks later. But the banks got their “bailout” the next day . The bailout that they admittedly didn’t need …..

    1. @Mercy
      I haven’t got one yet either and I know several other people that have and several that haven’t.
      Hopefully we’re next in line. Good luck and God bless!!! 😷😷😷😷

    2. Wall street got a 10 trillion dollar bailout and most corporations like United air still laid off it’s workers after receiving 58 Billion In taxpayer bailout money

  3. Uk. 80% of salary paid
    Denmark 75% salary paid
    S. Korea. 70% salary paid
    Netherlands 90% salary paid
    Canada 2k monthly
    Austrailia 1k monthly
    United States A 1time $1200 payment…who knows when it will arrive.
    Greatest nation? …..by whose standards?

    1. @Jakob Serns …BRILLIANT! -FOH. IM doin better financially than b4 the crisis,so again, THIS NOT ONLY ABOUT ME.. I hope u get to keep ur day job..bcuz you’ll never tell jokes to survive..if so u wont live long.. 🤔…maybe u should try comedy!…foh.

    2. Those other countries pay a LOT more in taxes that in the US. They also have a lot less people to give money to.

    3. It’s because their tax rates over there are so haughty that if you compare it % by %, we are getting more

    4. It’s because their tax rates over there are so haughty that if you compare it % by %, we are getting more

    1. The people capitalism proposes to support the most are getting shafted the hardest. Not surprising, the system is corrupted and doesn’t work.
      (Not that any system works)

    2. @Christopher Rapczynski This is actually a litmus test for capitalism because in its pure form you’re on your own. Any assistance would be socialism.

      Our stimulus checks and all those safety nets that corps are getting are all forms of welfare.

    1. If you need to obtain a lost email? Got that spouse that you are suspicious of cheating on you? I completed my divorce with my ex husband after contacting cyberhack037@gmail.com or on WhatsApp +14347678160 for the best iPhone spy key-logger (I know its illegal but I could afford it). You won’t need victim’s phone to install and you have access to( In my case I didn’t need to gain access to my ex husband’s phone ):
      I had access to all Calls both incoming and outgoing, all text messages, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Skype, Pictures and Videos, Emails, GPS Tracking.

    2. @YOUNG FOREVER If a Government can send out a trillion dollars in one month, they can fund their own roads throughout the year.

    3. seheadhunter50 you do realize these 2.2 trillion dollars they’re Giving out is absolutely insane right? Everyone hopes that we don’t ever need to spend that much again. How is it possible to build roads if the government isn’t getting money from anywhere?

    4. @Forgive ALL False PROPAGANDA won’t fly here TROLL. Trumph has done NOTHING to improve ANYONE’S situation regarding HEALTHCARE. 🇺🇸🌊🇺🇸🌊🇺🇸🌊🇺🇸🌊🇺🇸
      VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO! Stop spreading B.S. and get with the program!!

    5. @Forgive ALL I’m following you on the latter half, but what do you mean the Left is trying to take away rights?

  4. We need a second mass wave because the first one its not enough, things have gotten more expensive

    1. The bill states where not going to be accountable for the money due to it being a release form of a state of emergency even if they did try to tax us they couldn’t

    2. @Booker Howard lol you really believe that? It will be added to the national debt. How does that ever get paid back? There’s no such thing as free money. It doesnt go to the government free from the fed, it doesnt come to us free and neither does the massive corporate bail out. This was already proved in 08

    3. Skate Nate the national debt is from the government and big business and other countries are paying it I thought the world knew that🤦🏽‍♂️yes taxes is paying for it a small portion but that has nothing to do with the bill the bill states what I said there not going to use it against you trust

  5. Quick question. I understand the government is giving me back some of my money, but how much are they going to charge me for it next year?

    1. STAY HOME Stop the Spread as a tax payer……I think that is people’s money. Internal revenue means money collected domestically, like income tax, sales tax, property tax……

    2. I have a small business the way I understand it is the money you receive as part of any COVID-19 “relief” will not be taxed BUT the money you receive will be counted included in your income so far as to determine what tax bracket you are in. So if what I’m told is true. Your taxable income would be slid up the income tax scale that amount which you receive.

      That’s for now. Remember, the Gubment just don’t go round handing out money for free. And the other very important thing to remember is THE BANKS NEVER LOOSE. There’s a reason why the COVID-19 Cares Payroll Protection Plan money can only be acquired through a Lender and the SBA Economic Impact Disaster Loan (EIDL) is applied for directly to the Small Business Administration (SBA). I don’t know the reason, but I’m skeptical.

      You know every time there’s been some kinda “disaster” or “recession” the government came in and took some control and never really gave all of it back.

      I’m curious the things the gov’t (either Federal, State, or Local) took from you by way of public order what would you most like to see returned first?

  6. We all need to stick our heads out our windows and yell “It’s my money, and I need it now!” That’ll show ’em.

    1. @Carl Hearn Thanks, I like making people laugh. JG Wentworth had argruably the most successful advertising ever.

  7. We need a second one we don’t have a job. And we are still in quarantine.How are we going to pay our bills.

    1. @DRIVERS LQQK I’m not even touching it. Im still working ATM. So I’m gonna keep it in my Savings Acct.

    1. @Steven Hughes im not dependent anymore I was last year. I’m over the age of 17 my parents didnt get any money for me an i didnt get any because it goes off of 2019 2018 taxes

    2. Sol Invictus people who don’t file because they make little to nothing are who should have received it.

    3. I wonder where they’re going to send all the homeless people in America their check that don’t have a mailbox or a house to hang it on or how about the disabled people that don’t file taxes and then away next year they’ll make you pay income tax on that money screw you people.

    1. Love G. Carlin!
      “The govt doesn’t want enlightened citizens capable of critical thinking. What they want is OBEDIENT WORKERS”

  8. Filed on February 5th, yet to see my refund or stimulus check and can’t check either because it tells me my info is wrong when i’m 1000% sure it’s correct. What a wonderful time to be alive

  9. Right! I’ve been paying taxes to the IRS without fail for over 40 years and their “Where’s my check” site cannot tell me what my status is! SNAFU!

    1. Exactly well I’m younger but still the sysyem doesn’t seem to see my records. I just filed in 2018 and 2019. Will wait and 👀

  10. Came from walmart. Everybody was buying big screen tv’s. These same people are going to blame Trump for not having anything saved up

    1. Yep, America is funny.they want everything and have to have the biggest car and biggest home, they never save a penny. I have not had a pay check in 21 years. Freelance work. I have always at least six months in checking. I might save the stimulus but I might get a cheap used car . LOL.

  11. Well it’s Thursday April 16th and we have not received our stimulus payment in our bank account and the website to check the status gives me zero information. Has anyone else experienced this?

    1. yep. It tells me I’m eligible and they’ll let me know when they send it. They confirm my bank account. Still haven’t seen it, no updates.
