if they put half the effort they put into making the checks.

you can not say the check does not look cool ?

what is the value of the US currency today?

it takes more than 1 cent to make 1 cent ?   

fiscally irresponsible. 

the us  1 cent has been in production for how long ? ever see a flying eagle one cent . sorry I do not have one to show you . or a US large cent a bit smaller than the british penny .   copper . what is it worth? I am sure if you can find a book you might be able to see what they look like or just google it .

really cool coin .  sorry what is anything worth anyway ? 

give a pound for a pound ?     silver ? gold ?   

I am so stimulated ? 

please pardon my rederick,  cabin fever and spring fever all in one day .

US is where I live . how are things in the rest of the world ?

anyone else get stimulated ?

how does the rest of the world think of the US

I already know >   < been there done that .

US TAXPAYER DID YOU GET STIMULATED >  where is my pieces of the apple pie . or did like me your american dream turn out to not be all you expected .

sorry TMI .

US currency .  how does it compare with the rest of the world ?

anyone else get what they paid for > sorry syntax error does not calculate must be run time error compile error >  sorry my computer just glitched

stimulation > anyone have a good coffee cup of joe ? ideal breakfast anyone >

I guess i have said  enough maybe to much . what does this have to do with HIV .

if you have it had it or are scared of it .   then you might need some distraction while being stimulated ? 

HIV > AIDS > death >  < not so fast >  procrastinate. as long as possible.

the finish line will come soon enough . for myself I feel like I am about halfway at this point .  how about the rest of you ?   

have a great time in whatever you do .

all the best to you

EM

value . how much is tritridium worth > H3 or O3 ozone > chemistry trionic bonds , really cool stuff there . look into it but not too deep you might get lost in your own mind . 

table of contents when was Einsteinium added or Californium >

sorry a bit to off topic  for you .

sorry it was just nothing but a stray thought here and there >

I Hope you have pleasant dreams

EM > TMI or what . I have been accused on a few occasions of thinking to much > can such a thing really be ?   


you tell me > can a person really think to much ?

We both got ours, but almost 2 weeks apart. I mentioned to a friend that my stimulus came in a brown paper wrapper cylinder  :) He said " seriously"  :P

Haven't spent any of it yet.  My partner also received that follow up letter ( at tax payers expense),  from the "stable genius" trump.

Also received this today in an email:


> GOVERNMENT NOTICE
>
> Due to the current financial situation caused by the Virus and slowdown in the economy, the Government has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early, mandatory retirement, thus creating jobs and reducing unemployment.
>
> This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).
>
> Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to the Government to be considered for the SHAFT program (Special Help After Forced Termination).
>
> Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (System Covering Retired-Early Workers).
>
> A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as the Government deems appropriate.
>
> Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependents & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).
>
> Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by the Government.
>
> Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT (Special High Intensity Training) as possible. The Government has always prided themselves on the amount of SHIT they give our citizens.
>
> Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your MP, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.
>
> Sincerely,

PS - Due to the Virus, recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil, as well as current market conditions, The Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off.

Got it directly deposited to my bank account a couple weeks ago.  Most of it will be "stimulating" Quest Diagnostics for blood tests from my recent Dr. appointment.

In Australia workers who became U e.ployed voy a doubling of the normal rate of dole, there were also payments made to employers to keep their workers on the books even if there was no work for them. This so called jobkeeper payment was payed to the bosses only if they met certain arbitrary conditions, and applied for the payments.

My husband who have a laid off, not sacked gets nothing, as do no education workers. Of the funds promised by the government, only half will ever be distributed.

No one who was a casual gets the payment. The people with the most precarious attachment to work benefits get nothing.

Oh and our state government is cutting the wages of nurses, hospital workers and ambulance crews by 2.5%. Ouch.
