Would anyone ever want to work again?

That would disincentive the working class (i.e., restaurant workers, retail workers, etc.) making an effort to return to work.

By the way, Yahoo News reports Georgia, Alabama and Florida as the 3 worst states as far as unemployment. That may be reason why Governor Kemp of Georgia was very eager to reopen the state.

" Comparing each state’s average weekly jobless claims totals over the past six weeks to the week before shutdowns started occurring, reveals Georgia, Florida, and Alabama to be the three states showing the largest percentage spike in people applying for unemployment benefits. Georgia in particular saw jobless claims average a nearly 5,000% spike versus the week ending March 14. Florida and Alabama saw slightly less dramatic peaks, with claims surging about 4,000%. "

Fucking idiots.

$2,000 a month to everyone so that they can sit on their ass is going to inflate everything as well as create life cripples

Never gonna pass. Fucking leftoid idiotic bullshit - again they will have some arbitrary number where they cap it off, so like the idiotic plan it was compared to in the article that would give it to people making under $120K per year but nothing to those making 121K per year and over. What's wrong with the leftoids? Anybody with common sense can see this arbitrary cut-off makes no sense.

Doesn't have to pass. It puts forth the idea among those with an "adolescent attitude" that if they vote Dem, they increase the chances of not having to work.

Let's build dormitories and soup kitchens for those that don't want to work. Free showers and places to poop would be a definite help to the hopeless. Cash, not so much.

This is nothing but a race to the bottom while the elites laugh while most of us are enslaved. Take away a humans purpose and they are nothing.

And it even includes money for those for which the mail-in-ballot system was designed, if you catch my drift:
would deliver the cash regardless of whether people have a Social Security number or filed taxes last year.

How about a medical marijuana allowance, too?

They’re missing the entire point of a capitalist economy. You have to incentivize people to work or they won’t. That’s the entire point of money. It enables people to compel other people to provide them goods and services without having to enslave them first.

Won’t work because they all do drugs. As recently as 2011 City of Los Angeles had more beds than homeless people that would accept them.

The only way to get rid of the homeless is to trash their crap and arrest them and hassle them enough that it’s no longer worth it for them to stay here so they go to some other accommodateing crap hole instead like San Francisco or Seattle. If the leftist morons in those cities ever came to their senses and did the same thing, the homeless wouldnt have anywhere to go and would either get their crap together or overdose and die.

Might as well toss in a gaming subscription and a hour a week with a hooker too. That’s what Bernie promised his followers, isn’t it?

SF alredy did that. With free drugs/cigs/booze delivery.
