Most of the stimulus money was sent out in 2020, when demand collapsed due to lock downs. There was only $1,000 ($2,000 per couple plus $500 per kid) sent out on Biden's watch. Depending on how many kids you had, a couple could have received as much as $10k in stimmy checks in 2020.

It was a bi-partisan stimulus program, with most of it coming in 2020.

The wages were increasing due to market forces, not due to minimum wage increases. When Amazon, Fed-Ex, and Walmart are paying $15-$19/hour, they are setting the market for entry level wages. That's exactly what transpired. They needed employees at all costs, and their desperation increased entry level wages as much as 30%.
