    Bro, you need to revise your forecasts based upon the most current information. What you said was true, before covid-19. Anybody's guess now

    Socialism gone wild! $1,000 check will not even make a dent to cover the loss of interest. Not impressed at all. This is corporate welfare, the transfer of wealth from disciplined savers to prop up poorly managed corporations that should fail.

    Go to the bank & try to withdrawal over $10k, they will call in the men in black & treat you like you on the nations most wanted list.

    Suspect the checks will be mostly used to buy dope, in times like these - may be a good time to look into some weed stocks.

    Nonsense, now you get back to telling people to invest their life savings / mortgage their houses (last month) when the rest of us were saying dude, don't get so excited.

    The US is already socialist, the US military, in structure and near cradle to grave benefits. The funny business here is how the money is being distributed, 1000 bucks won't be much use for people who have been let go.. keep the jobs.

    There was actually more than one "check, please!" stimulus package in the past. Both Bush and Obama admins used it. Can't say they worked all that well though. Nevertheless, it's better than nothing, especially if you're a waitress with 2 kids (now that both restaurants and schools are ordered mandatory shutdown).

    Anyway, for further info on previous stimulus checks:

    Yep pump the economy with more free money. I'm sure by the time we get our $1000, cases of the virus will have dropped and markets will skyrocket 18% in a week.

    If china is seeing cases drop off why the chaos here with over 5000 cases in the US with over 300 million people????

    Seen some production numbers from China recently, wasnt pretty for China over 3 months.

    Don’t think we’d come close to doing what China pulled off. We can’t build 1400 bed temporary hospitals in a week, and doubt we’ll see states and cities being locked down.

    San Francisco shelter in place. Advised not to go anywhere not an emergency.
    NYC.

    While it isn't a Chinese style lock down, it is a lock down.
