One thing that helped a lot of people is the stimulus money they received. I know there are a lot of stories out there about people using that money frivolously, but the statistics [0] show that roughly half of the stimulus money was spent on rent and bills. If we hadn't spent all that money on stimulus checks, then the current situation could be much worse.

- jackson1442 5y agonot to mention it’s a _stimulus_. the whole point is to spend it within the economy. really the only negative outcome for the government would be to dump it in a savings account.
