and they will need a stimulus to get Repubs re-elected and that's also why he is so insistent on interest rate cuts, but don't want to admit that they're afraid of economic problems over the next year. These kind of direct payments unrelated to tax changes have never been made before except during economic slowdowns.

Weird though that multiple websites are already falsely stating that $1390 stimulus payments have already been approved and going out in next month with same eligibility limits as the covid payments.
