Out of touch Steve Mnuchin insists Americans can live on $17 a day during this pandemic

Isn't it nice how these multi-millionaires and billionaires claim to know what us peasants can live on?

Fake news. The stimulus check is not meant to be the primary source of income. People are supposed to either be getting paid by their employer or file for unemployment or welfare.

I can, and have done, feed a family on $20 a day (not exciting, but nutritious). But that’s just groceries. This guy needs to walk the plank if he’s talking about paying all bills on $17 a day.

Fuck this psychopath troll and fuck his cunt wife. We need European style socialism right now. These 1 percent scumbags will have thousands starve on the street rather than loosen their purse strings even slightly. We need LEGAL enforcement of economic redistribution in the next year or so. The super rich will not give an inch otherwise.

You do realize that the stimulus is European style socialism?

Other counties like Canada and England are five over $1000 per month, not just one time

No, I just work in reality. It does no good to make huge leaps of logic. In fact, it makes you look unhinged. The one-time payment was never meant to be anyone's primary source of income.

Additionally, in previous generations, when did government pass out money to everyone? I'm not saying they shouldn't, but we've come a long way baby! My grandparents were never offered government money unless they went and applied for it. During the Great Depression, did you see Roosevelt cutting checks to American citizens?

Agree r4. They have literally stopped the economy by hoarding money. We need to start studying the French Revolution again for inspiration. I’m not big on the guillotine part but the super rich have been ripping off the world for too damn long. It’s time for a good old fashioned asset-stripping/forfeiture party. Treat them like you treat arrested coke dealers.

[quote]just disgusted by the elite's out of touch expectations.

Which if fair, but it's not a new sentiment and isn't the sole responsibility of one political party. As I said, did you see Roosevelt handing out checks during the Depression? The government created jobs through programs like WPA, but they still expected you to go out and do some type of work.

We're getting this payment because the government is trying to encourage everyone to stay home and the quarantine limits people's ability to earn a living. But the elite have always been with us and belong to both political parties. This is why Bernie Sanders is so popular. He's been able to hide his elitism and promise the government will provide free everything.

And you can't stop it. Because as soon as people get power, they succumb to being elite. Look at the Clintons. Bill grew up poor. You would think he would be a champion of the working class. But what did he do? Started being pals with rich people and established a global foundation with very questionable motives, which seems to operate more like a money laundering scheme. What did good ole boy Bill Clinton ever do for the non-elites of the US? Not much, really.

America is giving everyone who lost their job 2400/mo on top of what your state gives you for unemployment. It is very generous, so generous it pissed off a lot of Republican senators who tried to get it removed.

Rich people are sociopaths. They always were, always are and always will be.

It doesn't take a medical degree to look around at the society they have created to come to that conclusion.

The Clinton Foundation was investigated over and over again and nothing was found R14. Do you honestly think if the republicunts could anything they wouldn't have thrown the Clinton's in prison? They've been after every Democrat for years desperately trying to bring up any and all dirt they can. All they could come up with was a blow job and since they couldn't really nail anything on the Obamas they just shriek about Roger Ailes and call him a Kenyan Muslim and call them Obummer and Moochelle.
