About those Coronavirus checks

#1 Post by Pastor Fireball » Wed Apr 15, 2020 4:45 pm

The issuance of those checks is being delayed because the checks will be digitally altered to include the kindergarten scribble that passes as Drumpf's signature.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics ... story.html

That will obviously change that plans that my family had for that check. We don't necessarily need the money as we have thousands of dollars in the bank to cover any and all emergency expenses for years to come, so the only decision is what we should do with our check once it arrives. I thought of several different courses of action:

A. Donate the entire $2,500 to the World Health Organization. Genghis Con just cut WHO's funding earlier this week... which could come as no surprise to anybody, as its name includes three things that Drumpf hates: the world, health, and organization. It's similar to what Hugh Laurie famous said during his acceptance speech at the 2017 Golden Globes, that the name "Hollywood Foreign Press Association" includes four words that scare Drumpf.

B. Donate the entire $2,500 to Joe Biden. His campaign could use it, since he didn't exactly light up the tote boards during the primary.

C. Spend the entire $2,500 only at Black-owned businesses. You know why.

D. Donate the entire $2,500 to Black Lives Matter. Again, self-explanatory.

E. The option that I made to David Rackowitz several weeks ago: Take a blue magic marker and write "VOID" across the check--along with several hashtags that will hurt Drumpf's fragile feelings--and send the voided check directly to Drumpf. I wouldn't mail the check to the White House or to Drumpf Tower, but to Mar-a-Lago. Along with the voided check, I would mail a nice little handwritten letter proffering a few suggestions as to where Drumpf can insert his check.

Good idea except for E. You might consider donating to a food bank too.

It's $1200 per adult and $500 per child. How do you get $2500?

Leaving aside the issue of what to do with the stimulus check, does it really matter whose signature is on it? Most of them will be directly deposited into a bank account and so no signature will be seen.

I do understand it’s not delaying anything, and I’m satisfied with that. I don’t imagine it’s a big deal. I’m sure people will be very happy to get a big, fat, beautiful check and my name is on it.
There's your answer along with two more Trump lies. He made the decision himself and it will delay printing of the checks by several days until they reprogram the system to accommodate his signature in the Memo field.
