That’s much more than the $1,200 per person check authorized by this bill.

But even the Congressman is overlooking the fact that the stimulus bill was $6T, not $2T, the additional $4T went straight to the FED. Now the Congressman did divide the $2T by 150M to account for workers only; whereas, I divided $6T by 331M (as a rough estimate for total US citizens). Otherwise my number would be closer to $37,000 per US worker (as opposed to $18,000 per citizen)
