Not if someone with half a brain who has enough power to stop it has a say in the matter.  I'm not sure how they think the US is going to pay for such a relief effort--and I don't even know what the impact on taxes and inflation the first stimulus payment is going to be, and it worries me.  Part of me thinks that the Fed thinks it can get away with printing money nonstop, having done it a few times before without disastrous consequences.

But there are going to be consequences, that much I'm sure of, and somebody is going to have to pay for all this free money eventually. 

I'm also wondering how long the politicians think this crisis is going to go on, and my personal guess is that it's not going to be longer than six months and probably will be much less than that.  People aren't going to need all this relief money once they start getting back to work--which they will once businesses start to open again.  I don't know.  This proposal is stupid on its face, and it could just be political posturing.
