31 days left until the Georgia US Senate runoffs (#4326)

      Maybe the most persuasive selling point we democrats have down in Georgia for the 2 senate runoff seats is to let the Georgia constituents know that with a democratic led senate they will be assured of receiving a $1,200 stimulus check nearly as soon as Joe Biden/ Kamala Harris are inaugurated. Having already received one payment back last spring/summer the allure of having another should kindle some desire in them that won't be coming with republicans leading the senate. If I know anything about how bad our economy has become for we the working middle poor class, this point alone should engender some significant support. The republican party has shown that they are not about the people who are in our working middle poor class and once again side with the more wealthy.
     In our capitalistic economy where the bottom line of money is all that matters, the idea that money would be coming to many in the form of $1,200 is enticing more than not. We are all hurting and republicans do not want us to have that $1,200 when we really need it. It isn't a giveaway either. We all were hurt because of the mismanagement of the Covid-19 virus so the $1,200 is just a bit of relief from that. It wasn't our fault that trump decided that the virus was not worth his full attention. We all need to get back on our feet and for a small amount of money in the big picture, $1,200 will go a long way toward getting us back whole.
     So many of us have been going without on so many civilized things that we are quickly becoming far more poor than middle class. While the wealthy are raking in money hand over fist. The largest income inequality gap in history is taking place right now and continues to grow, https://source.wustl.edu/2020/11/widening-income-gap-means-less-grocery-variety-for-all/. Beginning to answer the income inequality dilemma is to elect both democrats in the Georgia US Senate runoff. That way a large stimulus package can be passed into law that includes all Americans not just the wealthy. That $1,200 stimulus payment is just the beginning of the help coming with 2 democratic victories on January 5th 2020 so let's make it so!
