    It's income based. Single threshold is $99k. Not sure what it is for married.
     
  2. 100% agree with that and I don’t even want new rims :)

    Figures. Succeed, take the risk to build a business, contribute to the economy, hire people at a decent wage...

    ... and get screwed.

    :mad:

    . Its all outlined on an irs sight I looked at.
    Yep, I won’t be getting squat. Complete smoke and mirrors. Just keep printing money and pile it on the deficit. Even, if I did qualify it just ends up trading dollars with the feds and having to pay for it. So the reality is, the “stimulus” will actually result in me having less money. Hurrays all around.

    Yep again. Bad life decisions are incentivized, while hard work and doing ones part is penalized monetarily. If you have any level of skin in the game, you get the screws turned to you. FN joke.

    Just got word an uncle of mine tested +

    They suspect he may have likely picked it up when he was in the hospital for back surgery about 2 weeks ago. He's overweight and has diabetes and hypertension so I can't imagine his outlook is going to be too good here. Also my cousin whose FIL lives with them has a hospice nurse that comes in every couple days tested + 8 days ago so now they are all on eggshells and isolating.

    Not quite. But I understand the premise.

    Correct. Also, lucky for me the part of my personality that decided I wanted to own a business also doesn't give a fuck what the government gives me or not. I never asked for anything except a tax bill so they have no opportunity to "screw" me.

    I can't be bothered by business owners whining about their plight. We all knew the risks. Being self sufficient also means building your own safety net. My net isn't as good as it should be but that's my fault. Won't happen again.

    The people I feel bad for are those who value security and made their career decisions to that end. Now the shit hits the fan in a way no one saw coming and they have to take whatever crumbs the almighty offer them. Unless they make $99k, then no crumbs...

    There needs to be a "like X's infinity" button because the truth you both just spewed is worth much more than one like!
