Stimulus Checks: Politico's Report on Troubled Stimulus Negotiations Has People Talking

We're about to have millions homeless, an economic depression, and the collapse of major cities, yet they still can't stop trying to get one over each other. Both parties are ass. Our leadership has failed. I hope they remember this when people are finally pushed too far.

No rush... its not like people are going hungry, at risk of losing their homes, long testing delays, kids going to school with no national plan, slow mail, and businesses closing 🙄 wonder if they'll feel a sense of urgency if the stock market starts collapsing

Great! So while Americans are stuck in situations that were due to the neglect of the government in the first place, now they have to sit around and wait for needed aid because nobody can make up their mind in an emergency situation? Make a timely decision, it's your job!

That’s because our government doesn’t give a fuck about people.
It’s corporate policies for corporate businesses and fuck what the people want. If it doesn’t benefit then why would they do it?
Welcome to Corporate America. 2021.
Nothing changes until we change the system ✊🏽

Not surprising that they can't just get this done for the American public because it involves them giving us money and not themselves or trying to tie other things into it that have nothing to do with getting much needed money to people

I am completely disillusioned with both parties at this point. The US is floundering in every area and all the “leaders” are in a demented pissing match.

Yeah no that's fine. I don't need that money at all. Not like my cars messed up and I need it to find a job, all the places I could work at are too far to walk. Yeah its fine dude. I'll just lay on my floor of my room and starve to death. That's what the govt. wants right?

I still haven't gotten the first one and I need it, I am disabled and can't hold a job. Meanwhile my mom gets government checks for a disability she lied about having, and bashes me because "art is not a real job" like damn I'm trying my best.

no rush, of course. it won't impact them so why should it matter? smh. both parties are trash and while they're twiddling their thumbs, trying to play high stakes chess with each other, the people are struggling. ridiculous.

It’s always a good time for a government official to take time off during a pandemic & financial crisis! 🤦‍♂️

honestly what the hell is wrong with them? taking their sweet time meanwhile people are struggling to scrape by. my god.

Last stimulus checks went out in April. It's August and they're still arguing
