$ 600.00 is a joke, but even $2,000 is not the answer, the correct answer is to open up this country, restaurants and all and let Americans take care of themselves, handouts are not the answer! Hurting the economy with shutdowns is absurd and increasing the national deficit is certainly NOT right!

$2,000 could potentially mean the difference from being homeless or not., but $600 will Not pay anyones rent or house payment.

$4,000.00 for every one that makes under 40,000.00. Give it to people that actually need it! I think these billionaires need to be capped and the rest given back.

I still like a income flat tax the same for every person. No deductions and no taxes back.

These corrupt career politicians need to think about the American people first. Why send billions of dollars overseas when it’s a stimulus to help the the American people?if you call it a covid relief bill for the American people and say it’s to help us but send money overseas it’sgoing back to them

The people that need it are hurting badly and $600 is a slap in the face. $2000 comes closer to covering anything significant.

$2,000 might actually make a difference in people's lives; $600 doesn't cut it at all.

For those that truly need it. Not for people that are still able to work and earn a living. And absolutely NOT for illegal immigrants EVER!!

Because even though the 600$ stimulus was approved I feel that the other amount would be easier and better cause for the businesses, and the American people.

I think we should give everyone $10,000. I am 78 I won't need to pay it back. lol. Most of the money borrowed is going to foreign countries. Young people that vote democrat have no idea that they are destroying their future.

inflation? There will be consequences to all this. I really hope those in need are able to use it well but it will still come at a cost.

No! what I would support is having businesses who are forced to close submit last years P&L to the government and get that money, they could pay their employee's who could pay their bills. Of course there is more to it but I do not have room to go in to it.

Obviously, if kids who shouldn't be riding these bikes cannot ride them to school, that represents hours of the day that they won't be on them, being reckless, violating basic rules of the road, and putting lives, including theirs, in danger.

I have a business literally across the street from their office/dump location and still get consistently missed on recycling. I have been missed regularly on garbage as well. The city has the ability to pull their contract if this continues.

I live in Crook County. We went a whole month without recycle pick up. The service is always on FB because of inconsistent service. We went two weeks with no garbage pickup. It's like this all over the city as well as out of city limits! VERY FRUSTRATING when you're paying for a service!

LOL. In Crooked River Ranch - we don't know what 'recycling' is. The garbage company totally did away with it. So - I feel no sympathy for some of you who have 'delays'.
