Because that is not how economics work. When you are poor you spend nearly all your money. When you are rich you take that $1200 and put it in the bank.

If the point is stimulus then you target low income people

Most people even if they're relatively well off when the government hands them a check they do go oh let me put this extra money in the bank. The go " great now I can have a TV or dick towel money to blow for the vacation" or whatever crap theyre buying at their income level. They spend it trust me most people have already spent it in their minds. Its just human nature koods. :shrug:

You’re thinking like a poor person. The reason these people aren’t poor is because they don’t just go and spend money when they get it.

And extra money goes into the bank, or to make an extra mortgage payment, or into the retirement fund. It doesn’t go to a new TV. It’s this difference in thinking about money that allows rich people to accumulate wealth.

That and not having their housing costs go to paying a landlord's mortgage, and various other shit like that. If your income is low enough relative to the cost of living, saving all your extra pennies is never going to make you rich.

Yeah, I'm doin all right in life, last stimulus I donated to a local food bank.  This one I'll likely find another local charity to donate it to.  Doesn't mean I couldn't use the money, I could student loans, bought a new car etc.  I can cover that with my wages though, rather find a small charity with little to no administrative budget and 90%+ of the money goes to the people the charity serves/

This people aren't the kind of rich where they have everything and money is no object. Again trust me they buy an awful lot of crap and spend. You really think theyre gonna go wow $600-1200 thats a chunk of change that goes into a retirement fund.

My godmother just died. This woman worked for the phone company as an operator, she never married and retired 40 years ago. Her estate is worth over $5 million dollars. The way you spend your money makes all the difference when you have a relatively average income.

I'm not saying that some people wouldn't save a free $600. I'm just saying alot maybe most people wouldn't even if they made 100k a year. Dropping it in some fund is technically kinda spending it anyway. Its injected into the economy. :shrug:

There are definitely plenty of middle class people who aren't especially smart with money.

And I’m saying you’re wrong. We’ve done these kind of stimulus payments before and we know how people used that money.

Yes, I was totally joking when I said it was "plenty" of them. What an outlandish thing to say, right?
