Another stimulus check?

[Snapdragon]

I've gotten two letters in the past two weeks telling me that another stimulus check/DD payment has been sent out. There are no dates so I don't know if they are talking about the last one I got (in March) or a new one. I have been checking and do not have any direct deposits. Should I expect another one?

I got the same ones, signed by Biden this time. If you go to the website on the letter it'll show you the last deposit you got. My letter came late April letting me know to expect a check in 2 weeks. It was for the March deposit. Great work feds.

 

[MCgrease08]

Yeah, it's for the previous payments not a new one.

Remember when the media and the IRS criticized Trump for sending out similar letters with his signature on it, claiming he wanted credit for the payments and accusing him of politicizing the agency?

I won't hold my breath waiting for the same type of coverage for Biden doing it.

My letter was all in SPANISH, but then I flipped it over and realized English was on the back.

Those that can, Do. Those that can't marry a teacher (Dr. Biden) and work at the Government.

OK thanks, guys.

I got one also and the first thought upon reading it was big deal, who cares...so it obviously wasn't effective in swaying my opinion regarding the current administration, granted I'm jaded.

I'll go one step further to say I don't believe many others who didn't vote for Joey are any more swayed.

So that begs the question, do his cheerleaders need this kind of supposed reinforcement to continue believing in him?

If you have kids, these are supposed to start in July.

The new stimulus bill includes a groundbreaking basic-income policy — parents can receive up to $3,600 per child this year

Parents can receive up to $300 per child each month from July to December, no strings attached. It's a guaranteed income for families.

Thought the same thing when I received the letter. Joe Biden at the bottom just like it came out of his personal account.

i know a family that stands to get $2400 a month. that's more than a lot of people make working everyday. it can encourage some folks not to work...unless you were responsible and only had the number of children you could actually afford to support

They are going to great lengths to get people attached to the Gov't teet.

The local Subway, Hardee's, and Dollar General were closed because they couldn't get people to show up to work.

These low pay jobs will be hard to fill when an untrained no skills douche bag makes union scale money drinking beer on the porch. This is by design and the weak minds are being bought off "REAL CHEAP" right now and we should all be very happy we stood around and let this happen and yes, we did.

We were just talking about this at work and I hadn't heard about it. I've been reading a bunch of articles trying to research it. From what I'm reading, it's only set to run through the 2021 tax year, so theoretically the payments would stop in January 2022. As should be expected, some are trying to make it permanent.

I've not been able to find anything yet about if it replaces, removes or otherwise alters your child tax credit on your taxes.

Money printer go "brrrr" and it ain't stopping...

It's all funny money anyway, at this point.

Something like 2 tril in tax income vs 6 tril in government spending going on. What are we even paying taxes for? The debt will never be paid off, the budget will never be balanced.

As far as I'm concerned, the only potential way out is through such rabid consumerism it creates a chain reaction of economic growth that staves off a potential collapse. 'Cause we sure as hell aren't paying down the debt or balancing the budget. And that debt only starts mattering if we have a rough string of economic retractions.

Just depends on who's folding them and whether they really care.
