Anyone not get their stimulus yet?

[dlphg9]

My mom is still waiting on her stimulus. I don't think I know anyone else that hasn't gotten theirs.

Guess they're fighting over the limit that individuals make for the second round, between Republicans wanting $40000 and below, while Dems are saying it should be like last time $75000 and below. I hope they meet in the middle so my wife and I can get one again, we're trying to buy a new house and that money would definitely be used for stimulating the economy.

Well I don't know about your number there. I think it is off. People that were able to draw the unemployment monies should have been able to keep up with rent. Mortgages were able to be deferred if people asked. People should have had a savings to help also. Yes there will be people that are going to lose their places of residence but there will not be as many as your number or even close.

My point is the stimulus isn't going to save the economy. If people had savings before the stimulus, I'm guessing their spending habits are going to be about the same. If they didn't have savings before stimulus, I'm thinking that person is better off saving it or paying off debt, their 1k isn't going to save the titanic.

I can understand this thought process.
Do you really think you know more about how to save and or stimulate the economy than the best economic minds in this country that get paid to do nothing but this kind of research? Did you know that this is the same plan that was used to get this country out of the great depression?
