So let me ask you. If you make $80k and get a check for $1,400 this will likely get you caught up one month on your mortgage. Then what? This is more of a way to stimulate the economy. The whole “help struggling families” is really dumb and a farce. So you know the best way to stimulate the economy. Open back up. Restaurants here in OC CA have been open and full in defiance of Newsom’s order for months. Has there a spike in cases? Nope. As a matter of fact we’re moving into the red tier tomorrow and ALLOWING restaurants to do what they already have been.
And if you’re working and you can’t pay your mortgage you couldn’t afford the home to begin with. Now if you lost a $120k job due to the pandemic and had to take a 30% cut in pay that’s different. But again $1,400 won’t last long. Then you’re right back where you started. Politicians are idiots. Both sides.
