View Full Version : Why work when the government is handing out free coronavirus money?

Small businesses are able to get grants of up to $10,000. with EIDL (Emergency Injury Disaster Loan), and exponentially more with PPP (Paycheck Protection Program) grants. I call these grants because they don't even need to be repaid.

Unemployment - including for independent contractors - is minimum over three grand a month when considering the extra $600. per week that the federal government kicks in. And people are having the full amounts sent to them, with no withholding.

No wonder so many low level workers would rather stay at home and collect free money than work. This is the greatest boondoggle of free money from the government in some time!

And if you REALLY know what you're doing, like some of the larger corporations, you may tap into MILLIONS via the PPP that need never be repaid.

Why work? Just collect.
