That’s true. My position is that if there is going to be a multi trillion dollar give away at least 50% should be directly given (refunded) to those who pay income and/or payroll taxes. Working Americans. None should go to bank percentage swindlers or tax dodging international corporations. In this case, the remainder should go to supply healthcare facilities with the supplies and equipment needed for this pandemic and to create stockpiles for possible future outbreaks.
