Pay everyone $1500 to get vaccineIt is a stimulus check & big vaccine incentive rolled into one Result: more people get vaccine, it saves lives, helps people financially, and the $400 B pays for itself w/ economic boost from ending pandemic RT if you agree #vaccinestimulus— John Delaney (@JohnDelaney) November 20, 2020
Normally requiring some action in order to receive cash transfers from the government just serves to reduce the number of people receiving aid, and liberals love to use "incentives" to get people to do stuff. This is just one of the few instances I'd support it.
Ah that makes sense. I was thinking of this primarily as a way to get people vaccinated. It'd certainly be better if we paid people to stay home, and then gave them this extra incentive to get vaccinated on top of that.
