here is the upside to Biden winning, and if the Dems take back the Senate. they are likely to pass some kind of unemployment extension + supplement.
after the 2009 crash, Dems extended the unemployment to a maximum of 99 weeks. there was a tiny supplement like +$25. nothing like the +$600 a week they did a few months ago. but they seem like they want to do the bigger supplement this time, since the max rate is determined by the state and usually pitiful especially with inflation since the base amounts not been raised in decades. (e.g. in my state it's max $275/wk)
If they do the unemployment extension plus the $600 or hell plus $300 or $400... i would just coast on that all the way to the very end unless you can find a job making better money. i seriously doubt the economy is going to recover in less than a year, if ever.

I'm luckily European, so I think I'll managed with unemployment for some time, if shit happens. But yeah, not a great outlook
