There is no scenario where it makes sense not to take the money. You will never have to pay any of it back. There is a chance (some might consider remote) where regulations regarding interplay of this tax credit and other nonrefundable tax credit may diminish what might have been your overall refund. But there is no circumstances where it's better to not take this money. Honestly, if they give it, im taking it, wife already agrees with throwing it in saving and waiting for clarity on how or if it gets treated as taxable income when we file next year.

Fergasun Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 These bailouts make me so angry. How many people benefit from the stock market? We're basically spending 4 TRILLION to subsidize the rich. If we have checks and unemployment increases for the people, why do we need corporate bailout? Their employees are covered... the corporate bailout is for the rich. That is ridiculous. We're going to continue to run an economy where debt drives asset prices; including housing and everything else to a huge number. Oh, and where's the bill-text? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly, a component of WWII was the complete collapse of the German economy due to the Great Depression. But for example, the Long Depression didn't fuel any wars, and the economy had been pretty stable prior to WW1.

I just wish we would demand they explain why so tilted towards corporations? Do even the political parties have a national crises policy? This is two bailouts in 12 years and ultimately its all aimed at the banks. The banks would take the brunt of any economic downturn. So can we just nationalize the banks? I would like to see that graph charted by state. Personally I feel like SoCal, aside from beaches and hiking last weekend --- people are aware of social distancing. Newsome was talking about CA being 10 to 12 days away from New York.... I don't think so because we had the Bay Area breakout before New York and seemed to have flattened the curve. Florida and Louisiana are the ones a week behind NY... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmirOfShmo Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 **** you Hume. Seriously, this ****ing news group cult needs to implode. "Fox News’ Brit Hume defended comments from Texas lieutenant governor Dan Patrick Tuesday night, saying it is “entirely reasonable” that elderly Americans could be fine with dying amid the coronavirus outbreak to save the U.S. economy. “The utter collapse of the country’s economy — which many think will happen if this goes on much longer — is an intolerable result,” the 76-year-old told primetime host Tucker Carlson. “[Patrick] is saying, for his own part, that he would be willing to take a risk of getting the disease if that’s what it took to allow the economy to move forward. He said that because he is late in life, that he would be perhaps more willing than he might have been at a younger age, which seems to me to be an entirely reasonable viewpoint.” https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/fox-news-brit-hume-entirely-131616086.html Hmmm....actually, I hope their listeners take the advice. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought is that self-proclaimed Republicans feel some need to show support for their orange lord and savior and deep down understand he's singularly unreliable. Then I look at my conservative friend's social media feed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
