How Would This Work?
"How can one accurately decide who needs it and who really doesn't?" one Facebook user asked. "For example just because Seniors lived on a fixed income that wasn't affected directly by Covid doesn't mean that they aren't struggling and couldn't use the extra money.

Another user on Facebook expressed their concerns over Kudlow's comments, writing that they were worried that if the government did dole out stimulus checks to those who are most "in need," then some individuals who need the payments could be left out. "And who will determine that??? I am sure that Sr's will not be on the next go-round if there is one," they wrote. "But the elderly and disabled are among the folks that have fixed incomes and have a real hard time making ends meet and with medications and the cost of food going up, and not a real cost of living in years, they are among the folks that need it. Just see that the folks who got it last time and should not have, don't get it again. Right, like that is gonna happen!!!

Maybe you make a decent wage but you're helping several family members or have a lot of medical bills or other payments so that leaves you with very little left if any until the next pay check."
