/——/ Since the government has no money other than what it taxes from the taxpayers, we’d be compensating ourselves. Better to force the states into bankruptcy and free them of all the bad deals they made over the decades and finally live within their means.Presently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis. As a result of this loss of income, presumably things that American citizens have worked to obtain are in peril of loss, such as their homes, vehicles, educational opportunities, etc. And of course any default or late payments on loans, credit cards, mortgages, etc. damages one's credit score.
Even when the economy opens back up, for many Americans the damage will have already been done. You may be able to return to your job but you have a 3+ month deficit where you had no money coming in, yet your monthly expenses continued to accrue.
Because the government mandated the disruption to your ability to earn a living for yourself, do you think the government should compensate those who have suffered a loss via reparations?
Why or why not?
The $1,200? What if you earn $1,200 a week? The stimulus payment only compensates you for one lost week of work. What about the other 11 weeks if the shutdown lasts 3 months? And the damage caused by not having the money when you should have had it and didn't, such as late fees, higher interest payments.It may not have been a lot for each individual, but couldn't you say they already did with the stimulus?
And what about damage to your credit score, resulting in higher interest payments, inability to rent a new place because you didn't have money to pay on the place you were living when the shutdown started, etc. Things like that.
Everyone who can show a quantifiable loss due to loss of income as a result of the shudown.since the situation affects EVERYONE-----who would get the "reparations"?
The government cannot afford to fulfill your dreams of reparationsPresently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis.

Sure state governments need to do this as they shut down the country not TrumpPresently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis.

That's a very interesting proposition.What our corrupt government should do is a debt jubilee. Have the fed buy all debt of the 90%. All mortgages, student loans, car loans , credit card debt...all goes to the Fed.I'm not sure what the OP means by "reparations." It seems like us, paying us.
Hell they do it for big banks and corporations, why not the people.
Most everyone who works and receives a paycheck has check stubs showing their gross and net wages and the pay period dates. Various government agencies have records of what companies have paid their employees so demonstrating loss wages should not be difficult at all.Everyone who can show a quantifiable loss due to loss of income as a result of the shudown.since the situation affects EVERYONE-----who would get the "reparations"?
that would be a HUGE undertaking in accounting. The neediest among us would have the hardest time
coming up with the necessary paperwork. Some of the most needy do not have PAPERS (in my city)
soooo you want the US to pay for China's crimes against the world ?? i'm sure your chicom allies agree with you traitor.Right. While you're at it, make Meixico pay for the Wall. Be sure and add an extra tariff to paint it gilded gold.no make china pay !Presently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis.

Why?I am philosophically opposed to reparations being paid to anyone for any reason...
its no surprise that the left wing chicom sympathizing traitor [penelope] thinks china should not pay.no make china pay !Presently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis.

Nassau County did not force anyone to close; a lot of food stores have closed because the workers don't want to get sick.Presently in the United States, millions of individuals have lost their source of income due to a government mandate to stay at home during the COVID-19 crisis.

If you're paying a mortgage or rent you'd have documentation of your monthly mortgage payments for sure, your rental lease ditto.
Listing of your bills you were unable to pay because of loss of income such as utilities, car payments, credit card bills, etc. while you have no income should be the same documents you have when you're paying them.
The damage to your credit scores might be harder to quantify but one can certainly demonstrate a point-in-time when it was one score and when it began to decline because of late or missed payments. Or letters showing credit declined due to your now lowered credit score.
I would estimate that it would take the average person less than 2 hours to pull the documents listed above. That's not too ardurous a task in my opinion, if it will net you at least consideration of compensation for what you've lost.

you are limiting benefits to middle class, literate, people with stable homes. You might be amazed to learn how many USA people, SIMPLY, do not live that way.
