No more so than the 2008 stimulus checks. Both programs were non-universal and under both the number of dollars sent to eligible recipients depended on their incomes.
- jimbob45 6y agoOh maybe I'm mistaken. I was under the impression that the COVID payouts were universal.

Not by SV or NY professional-class wage earner standards, but very high for normal people. It wasn't universal but it wasn't too far off, either.
