Another reason why some DO NOT need them! They are probably illegals otherwise they’d be getting their own checks!
Last I heard both illegals and prisoners were gonna get checks.

If prisoners and illegals are actually getting these checks, I'm going scorched-earth on taxes. I will do everything in my power to limit what the Gov can steal from me. "Covid relief" should be focused on extending unemployment, covering pandemic related healthcare costs and vaccine rollout - that's it.

ETA, apparently it's true. Prisoners get a check. https://www.eitcoutreach.org/blog/how-can-i-get-my-stimulus-check-if-i-am-incarcerated/
Looks like illegals may get stimulus too. Hard to tell based on the reporting. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/vo...force-democrats-on-the-record-on-tough-issues
1.4 million prisoners are getting checks.
Checks amounting to at least 1.96 BILLION. For the record, they received the first 2 rounds of checks also.
If the first 2 check payments were "oversight" payments, this latest check for prisoners was specifically noted and voted upon. It was passed on party lines.

If the convicts owe restitution or child support will the stimulus go towards it? Would be nice if it did.

Actually, people tried to stop it, but a judge ruled in a court case that the prisoners should receive said checks
Yes. Unlike regular child support or restitution payments when someone is out of prison that can often be finagled out of, the state and fed have far more control over the pay that incarcerated persons receive. Usually, every cent you make as a convict goes to restitution and child support.
Why is need a consideration ?
Because we care enough to share, to keep others from being homeless & going hungry.
>>>> I thought we were all equal in the eyes of the law and government in this country.
Equal opportunity for fairness in legal matters. Not equal in every possible sense.
>>> If you are going to give a homeless person a check then you should be required to give a billionaire the same check. Think egalitarianism.
No, think charity.
Not one size fits all, not sameness of output without consideration of need.
>>>> This is what has screwed up our country, hating those that have more. The desire to punish those that have more comes out of jealousy
Humans, being twisted in their thinking. It has hurt our country. The correction ? Ask what cultural normative standards preclude this thinking. The ask Who is behind the cultural norms and standards that correct this human fault.
and a desire for retribution due to those who have more working hard to get more. Sometimes there is luck due to birth but, that isn't a constant in our country.
So, we have an example of the combination of jealousy and self-justification in robbery ;
The brand of so-called socialism that is rampant in the news today. Masked human faults and rebellion, exacerbated by faulty solutions.
"If faulty thinking got us into this, why can't faulty thinking get us out of this ?"
If I got a life sentence tomorrow what would my 1400 dollars be worth in ten years when I got out?
