So, true, I have heard gripes from people on SSI that the stimulus did not come first to them because they needed it the most.
My question was why?
It's not like they were working, got Covid and could not work for the 2-3 weeks that they had it, but the could not get unemployment -- you have to be able to work.
My good friend had that happen to him and he is back to work, still coughing and still fighting exhaustion. Yet, a person, who sleeps all day, watches TV thinks they should come first and yes, they are democrats and is "entitlement" bound, while my friend is a workaholic, he has to be and is happy with his job.
I just think it sucks that people who don't work, circumstances did not change end up ahead of the workers who actually got sick from the virus.
