2023 is when we get sober about the premise that as-is, our economy is stagnating without fiscal or monetary policy stimulus that begins with the letter “T”. Many fingers will be pointed; some correctly to immigration, demographics, productivity and deglobalization.

It's my view that the Fed - to meet inflation targets - will raise rates until we are in a recession. Once in a recession the situation gets trickier. Fed will not want to ease & Congress won't provide stimulus/spending for fear of backsliding. That's when things get very hard

So when do we get the #monkeypox stimulus checks? I can't be scared or bribed into voting for anyone in November, by the way. Governor Newsom will be 1st to declare an 'emergency' situation. Much like Trudeau, he loves the power. One day, they'll meet for a private circle jerk.

When I was raising my kids, if we didn’t have enough to make ends meet, I would work a second job making $2.65 an hour….cuz we didn’t get “stimulus checks”. Now people won’t get off the couch for $15 an hour but they will cash those stimulus checks in about 5 minutes.

We know we can do it. Look at what Georgia did. When they needed both senator to win the people got out and voted. Maybe if they tell the people that they will get a stimulus to help them with gas and groceries then maybe they will vote. Which it's true it's needed. https://t.co/6B4slM5vOA

Now is the time where we should be getting stimulus checks. Not back when we first got them. We need help now. People can't afford to live with everything rising. Alot of people will be going bankrupt. Many won't travel to drs. Help us get through this
