US Covid Relief Packages
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act of 2020, and the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 provide fast and direct economic assistance for American workers, families, and small businesses, and preserve jobs for American industries.

The cost of the CARES Act of 2020 was $2.2 Trillion. TRUMP

The cost of the Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (passed in December 2020 by TRUMP ) was $2.3 Trillion.

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 builds upon many of the measures in the previous two acts. Passed on March 11, 2021, by BIDEN, the budget for this activity is an additional $1.9 Trillion.

The total of the three relief acts so far total $6.4 Trillion with another program currently being considered by Congress.

Don’t Forget the Monetarists
Monetarists maintain that the supply of money in an economy is the primary driver of economic growth. As the availability of money in the system increases, aggregate demand for goods and services goes up. An increase in aggregate demand encourages job creation, which reduces the rate of unemployment and stimulates economic growth.

As an economic tool, monetarism is implemented to adjust interest rates to control the money supply. When interest rates are increased, people have more of an incentive to save than to spend, thereby reducing or contracting the money supply.

Contrarily, when interest rates are lowered following an expansionary monetary scheme, the cost of borrowing decreases, which means people can borrow more and spend more, thereby stimulating the economy.

Monetarists propose that businesses will be able to anticipate the changes to the money supply every year and plan accordingly, the economy will grow at a steady rate, and inflation will be kept at low levels.

The 1-6 hearings have been a dud mostly. The only ones paying attention to them were Democrats and a few other anti-Trumpers. Independents who decide elections have paid little to no attention to them. They’ve been too busy leading their lives and trying to make ends meet with inflation, rising prices being what they are. Besides, most independents don’t pay much if any attention to politics until an election nears. With this group of voters, you’re talking 43% of the electorate if Gallup has it right. They’re about as far away as possible of being political junkies.

38% of independents list the economy, inflation, rising prices as their most important issue in deciding who to vote for. 2nd and 3rd on the list are Climate change at 11% and Healthcare at 10%. Every other issue is in single digits for the independent voter. You can look at the graph in RCP generic congressional ballot to see how independents have influenced which party leads in the generic poll. From January until July, independents were siding with the Republicans heavily which brought on talk of a red wave election. Then toward the end of July through the end of September, independents started to switch to the Democrats. That ended at the end of September and now independents are trending voting Republican again. I think I know why independents shifted from republican to democratic and then back to republican again. But that another subject for another thread. That switch had nothing at all to do with the 1-6 hearings.
