It was one of the stupidest ideas to give people more money than what they were making working full time. I understand unemployment benefits but why extra $600 a week at a time where productivity was very low.
This is all happening since the start of m1 back in 2008 the correction should have happened then. They did everything to slap a bandaid on the problem and now the financial body is dead and we're in a currency collapse.
