won't help the economy if that is what the powers believe it will

It would be far more helpful to put a hold on mortgages, rents, utilities, food, etc. until this health crisis is resolved

I know Joe could use it, but I want to help those who need it most.

She will need all the money she can get because Moscow Mitch will get plenty from Russia.

but I now understand this is for the Covid19 absence
This is so crazy.
I have been so obsessed with this disease,
I work in a tight environment and will be going through airports this week and off to another high unreported, uncontrolled country.(for my job).
Needless to say I am scared shit-less.

better to gift it to a family or person in real need... it will truly help them and inject money into the economy where it's needed

I will be giving mine to my daughter who lost her job and really needs it
