Laid-off Americans are making more $ than working.

[Snowball]

Case 1: Single retail worker

$600/wk on top of Unemployment Benefits to the end of July.
$1200/adult, $500/child one time payment.

For example, you work in service sector, make $12/hr. That's $480/wk, take home $400
400 x 4 = $1,600/mo

April you made $1200, plus $1200 unemployment, plus $2,400 in $600/wk unemployment stimulus. That is $4,800 for April. May, June, July - $3,600/mo.

Working Result: 4 months =$5,600
Unemployed Result: 4 months = $15,600

Case 2: Empty Nest couple, breadwinner takes home $800/wk. Spouse takes home $400/wk

4 months working: $19,200
4 months unemployed: $13,200 for April. $8,400 for May/J/J = $38,400

Case 3: Breadwinner $1100/wk, Spouse does not work, 3 children

4 months working: $17,600
4 months unemployed: $24,700

- Near-Indefinite extensions for UI are automatic.
Added stimulus past July is already being worked on.

See how this adds fuel to the fire for Universal Basic Income and Free Housing (dubbed "Affordable" housing) ?
Moreover, Billions are on tap for rental help and foreclosure "relief".

Many of these laid off workers will milk it for as long as they can.

To give credit where due, Hillary Clinton/Trump/Pelosi all came together and displayed strong leadership to quickly pass #FamiliesFirst bills.
Technically, this is not really full fledge socialism:

Define "full fledge socialism."

Even in China, people get money they call their "own" and they can go out and spend it however they like, in terms of food to buy, places to live, etc.

I woke up one day and America was no different than China. I am still pinching myself every day trying to find out if this is all a bad, long dream....

I'm so sorry. Take back what was already yours if they offer it (stimulus checks). Then look for new opportunities, because they will arise even in this socialist faux-capitalist society, if you are willing to adapt and get creative. Online businesses, for example, will now explode even more, and for those who do not sell their souls to Jeff Bezos and Amazon.com, there will be plenty of niche markets to serve the masses.

As one of the most left wing Governors in the country has explained (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTtJdN--6Mc), there is an agenda behind this strategy.

It would be when everything is funded by gummit including things like abortions and everything controlled by gummit including movement of people.

This at most could be possibly categorized as socialism-lite.
