"They" (I) will spend it on the dumbest shit! I've read about some studies and one found out that people just burn it on dumb shit and it doesn't improve things much but the economy bumps up a bit. The other one showed a measured response from the participants and all boats raised a bit.
I wish when the bank bail-out happened when we the people were fucked by the banks that the money had been given to us! Sure as shit that money would go right to the banks but my cars and house would be paid off and I would have a sparkly clean debt register! THEN I could have taken out a huge loan to buy a bigger house and better cars and started the cycle all over again. YAY America

NO no, the take home shouldn't be the 250 more. The take home from what I said was that you could work without the fear of losing the benefit. 1000 would be your bedrock and you would always make that. Yeah, I get it, not enough by a long shot but Mr. Yang also wants Universal healthcare so you wouldn't need to spend a dime on healthcare unless you work and then it would come out as a tax.
