I definitely am curious about it. I'm quite certain that a large part of why my area doesn't seem terribly impacted despite it having high infection is that most employment around here is Ag related, and Ag has gone on because there aren't many options to stop it. Which is also partly why we have high infections, they come from the food processing plants that are all around here. Field workers are likely not quite so badly hit.

Well, I actually already posted to koan, a few days ago, that I personally didn't need a stimulus check and would prefer the money go to those unemployed and to state budgets that are having to cut vital services and the money is needed to roll out the vaccine program for each state

So I agree the money is not being well distributed, especially all the original stimulus money that went to well connected peeps who cut in line, and cut off those who were more deserving

But that's the current state of the country we live in where Rcons and TrumpTurds call the shots
