Ain't no way that any kind of additional stimulus package will be done this year before the election. Neither side will agree to anything now. And I say Good. Maybe people will get a different attitude toward opening up the economy.

Well, you got that right. Never mind the strippers -- mass suffering three months before the election isn't a very good campaign strategy for the GOP.

And it is for the DNC?? Where is the most "suffering"? demo cities. Smart folks are cutin' out of the cities. Suburban new home starts are up 17.3%. GOODBYE "CITY"!
If the checks are not extended, the masses will focus on 45 letting them down, not their congressperson. Even delaying it then later approving it does that. The Dems will make their constituency suffer if it gets 45 out of office. They will tie the need for more checks to the narrative that 45 mismanaged the shutdown/startup and that is why they are still out of work. I expect there will be a gap before checks start again.
It seems the federal government is working on additional stimulus checks and PPP funding. Some lawmakers have even suggested to forgive all PPP as grants instead of loans.
All of this deficit spending would not be necessary if social distancing and masks were mandated, while closures and service reductions were optional.
The 600.00 might not be extended but I see something in the 300-400 range happening. It would be pure political suicide for the GOP to be overly stingy in an election year with over 20 million out of work through no fault of their own. I wouldn't be totally shocked if the 600.00 was extended until the end of the year.

Basically it's probably helping a handful of girls stay out of the club, not the majority.
It may make girls at the club thirstier especially as the overall economy slows
I don't think I'll be able to set foot in a club until next year.
