Looks like people will also get an extra $600/wk for unemployment benefits for 4 months.

$1,200.00

One of the first things the state did here was to ban the utilities from cutting services for 90 days. They also are not going to enforce any eviction notices for the same period.

This is gonna be difficult.

Is $1200 per person or household?

[Man]

It is amazing the amount of people who live paycheck to paycheck in their 30's and 40's!?

That I do not know. Perhaps it would just help them recoup some of the payout. I could be off base so I will try to research further.

My spouse and I qualify for the “free money”. We do pay taxes also. Just don’t make enough to be exempt due to the arbitrary income levels the government selected. If someone qualifies it doesn’t mean they don’t pay taxes..

No, I’m aware that there are plenty of folks who pay taxes that will receive this money. The original republican draft didn’t allow folks who pay nothing in taxes to receive the money. The Dems threw a fit and they eliminated that provision. That is what I was referring to. Sorry I wasn’t more clear.

They won’t pay rent with it. They’ve already been told that they can’t be evicted for a while. Buy stock in Sony because brand new PlayStations are about to be flying off of the shelves.

Reminds me of the stories I heard about people shopping at the Galleria after the Katrina debit cards were handed out.

[Muddy Bud]

I hadn’t heard that part. How would they “get it back” from the folks that don’t pay taxes? Or those who don’t loan the government money by overpaying throughout the year.

Just some questions. I don’t get any of this “free” money. I am one of the ones who has to pay for the “free” money.

Same here. Maybe we'll get a tax credit? I doubt it. Probably just end up paying the difference.

I’m betting not. Somebody has to pay for all of this.

I still don't understand how they can legally do that.

To me they have just seized all my duplexes and will allow folks to squat in them for at least the next 4 months.

While I am stuck making the payments to the bank, insurance and lets not forget the property taxes on property they have just taken control of.

I don’t disagree with you at all.

Talk to your bank. Ask for a 90 day payment deferral. Bet they give it to you.

Still not a good situation but at least it helps some.

I have no idea- but I'm fixing to find out, unfortunately.

[Scubasteveo]

The no eviction clause is somewhat misleading.
