oops! let me rectify that!

ach, i'd answer but you're just kidding. still, it might be worth looking into?
> is not what happened? Pretty much every taxpayer got a series of stimulus checks. It wasn't based on need
I didn't get one. I didn't get a second. In fact, nobody I know except for business owners and one person whose income was skewed for very VERY specific reasons got one. Maybe this is the source of our fundamental disconnect? Only my business owning friends got money, none of my non-business-owning friends got money. The money mostly went, in my experience, to those who were already well set up. Or to business owners, who largely got loans forgiven.
> Literally the only thought I've expressed this entire time is yup, that wave of money given to consumers seems like it had an effect on consumer spending habits
I mean, that's the thing I mostly disagree about, so sure- it can be small but it's all I'm keen on talking about?
