4. But if even one person gets an extra sawbuck each month, it's the worst thing ever!

The Republicans' slipshod program for payroll protection had a couple of guys game the system and buy Lamborghinis for themselves, but that's okay. A lot of well-heeled corporations ran the system and got preferential treatment to milk things for $10 million they didn't even need, but that's okay too. One or two of them that got caught eventually gave back some of the money, so that's all right.

But some poor schlub who's never had $600 in the bank for more than a day might get a little more, and so that whole system needs to be flushed. It's basic economics!
