3. GOP greatest fear: That some poor people might get a bit "too much" money some time

>On the other side of the Capitol, Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rand Paul, R-Ky., are furious with Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and other members of their caucus for considering another round of economic assistance for families, states and municipalities.

I know GOPers aren't Keynsians, but in times of crisis, it's been pretty well proved that simply giving money to people who will spend it, and small businesses that will use it to pay workers and stay open, can save the economy. Money in circulation is what fuels a recovery. This idiotic idea that $600 extra a week is "wasted" is stupid, especially coming from the very party who thinks the .01% is always deserving of an extra $100 billion in their yacht-maintenance accounts.
