lol

it was always clear the $600 was a 'down payment'

but based on the last 2 pages I am sure we'll see the GOP turn around and use it as evidence that Biden broke a campaign promise, and have success

Biden, Calling Stimulus Bill a ‘Down Payment,’ Urges More Relief

The president-elect said he would ask Congress soon after his inauguration to pass an additional coronavirus aid package with more money for firefighters, police officers and nurses.

WILMINGTON, Del. — A day after Congress approved a hard-fought $900 billion stimulus package, President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. called the measure a “down payment” on Tuesday and vowed to enter office next month asking lawmakers to return to the negotiating table.

“Congress did its job this week,” he said, “and I can and I must ask them to do it again next year. Blah Blah Blah Higgs is a Crybaby. USA #1! Australia sucks balls, can't get over how much better USA is than them”, Biden added.

That's what he said way back in December.

Here is what he said this month: "If you send Jon and the Reverend to Washington, those $2,000 checks will go out the door, restoring hope and decency and honor for so many people who are struggling right now," Biden told the crowd outside Georgia State University. "And if you send (Perdue and Loeffler back to Washington, those checks will never get there. It's just that simple. The power is literally in your hands."

Trump dealt himself a smash brothers level knockout. And then there were several more to him & his followers. The typical arguments seem interesting again to contemplate.

Seriously, that's why you think Aussie is doing as well as it is. Not because it is geographically isolated, sparsely populated with a generally warm climate and your government had the good sense to stop international travel. Not to sound like Verb but money does not stop a virus from spreading. It helps you pay rent and put food on the table, and that has nothing to do with stopping a virus.
Just on the underlined point, this did have a significant impact on how successfully the Antipodean countries managed the pandemic, and it was certainly unusual at the time:
Michael Story is a great follow on Twitter, if you're so inclined.

Wait... border control works? WHO didn’t know that?
American MPHs circa February 2020.

Can we just destroy all the programs that award those degrees and just go with Epidemiologists or something?

What you will never grasp is that we understand and are proud of this. It's who we are.

Sorry for triggering your inferiority issues. I'll try and be more considerate of your delicate constitution in future.

I’ve been fortunate that I haven’t needed the COVID relief checks to survive. They have helped pay off a few small credit cards from Christmas and stash some in savings.

But they should have looked into the small check that went out at regular intervals, instead of one big check in the spring., then nothing for 6 months, then another 600 (1400?) right now.

Such a fumbled relief procedure

Thanks. And congrats on putting out those forest fires! It must have been tough putting your thinking caps on to find a solution for that brain-scrambler. But in the end, you managed to claw your way up the cognitive ladder to the level of homo erectus and had a breakthrough: water put out fire. Amazing. Proud. Of. You. It took almost a year, but you did it. See - you showed everyone - and who knows what's next now?!? Maybe learning to walk on your hind legs, all the time?! Sky's the limit.
