Fortunately, my financial well-being hasn't been affected at all by coronavirus yet. There's no need for me to get a check. In fairness to Trump, he also said there was no need for millionaires to be receiving a check either (they'll get theirs from other bailouts). That said, I do wonder what is the most effective way of getting money to service industry workers or gig workers who have already lost their income without throwing away money to people like me who don't need it. Seems like there is a ton of room for corruption/waste whether it is handled at the federal, state or local level. I honestly have no idea what the right answer is but a check to everyone doesn't seem the best use of resources.
If you do get a check, perhaps target a local restaurant for takeout for a few weeks and tip the shit out of the employees?
Aren't you in the travel industry? Feels like that is going to be hit hard...
