    The stimulus checks were like $2k or whatever, wasn't it? Why do they still bring that shit up? Holy shit. People really talk like that. Even that plus, what? $600/w in unemployment was it? 33k is just under median wage in 2019. That's depressing because that's not a comfortable amount of money. Honestly America should just stop having an economy based around giving the world <$16/hr for serving treats to boomers and gambling on which company serves them treats the best. That's all I can take away from this.
