Are you, and a couple of the other guys saying there is 333m people living in poverty in the USA?

Either need to get real, or learn to read. Poverty to me, means homeless, no food, no internet, no water.

Not money for your computer parts.

The unemployment rate is currently 4.2% in the US. If you distribute the $8.5b among only those people, it's still only $600 per person. Not much of a help, imo.

I suck at math, too. That's why I use a calculator.

Ok,let's assume 1% poverty rate. So each will get $2,500. Would that make them middle class?

structurally it would mean Jack shit but 40usd extra in food stamps per month probably would make life just a tad bit easier For someone that really needs food stamps for food.

considering the behemoth is spending 7 trillion a year it’s more likely that some other things could be redirected and cut to keep people healthy and out of poverty.
double dipping insurance companies for example

Yeah, but you're talking about monthly benefits while the CHIPS act money is one single payout.

Oh, there's lots of corporate bloat that could be cut for the good of the people! But it'll never happen. And we're steering towards off-topic waters here, I believe.

Moreover, it's one payout that will generate a lot of taxes going forward.
