Do you support Biden's $1.7 trillion plan for COVID economic relief for local government, small business, and individual Americans?

Update:

One of you below writes "just open the economy up," so we can have a good economy again without the stimulus/ relief bill.  The problem with that is that COVID-19 has already killed 420,000 Americans and change and is predicted to kill more of us.  Unless we keep restaurants, bars, gyms and other public places somewhat closed down to prevent even worse mortality.

    First they should target it to those who need it.  Then they need to throw out all the stuff that is unrelated to Covid-19.  No bailing out states either.

    One big problem is that the support for local governments just gives those states who mis-manage their budgets extra money while the other states get the short end of the stick.

    I haven't supported any of the relief packages the way they're being done, but I'm not against it as a concept.

    No.  Why does local government need this money?  Just open the economy back up.  The politicians don't seem worried about the "essential" workers still working.  Or is "essential" just another word for "enslaved"?  

  • I don't support any of the relief packages.. The worst bunch of waste I have ever seen.. 20% going to where it's needed and 80% totally wasted and scammed..
