Interesting article. Thanks. I'm probably oversimplying the scenario but the message seems to be as wages go up, costs go up. Demands for wage increases such as the $20 per hour for unskilled labor in some sectors (i.e., fast food/retai) caused many of those businesses to either close or cut employees in order to stay profitable. Factoring in your stimulus scenario I'm not sure what the folks receiving the stimulus would do. I don't know how they think. I do know many of them left the workforce because the stimulus paid more. And, predictably, when they needed to go back to work, the businesses were no longer there.

The pay replacement for U/E can be so low that the stimulus may have gotten gem to 100%. I know some areas received more than full time work, but in the hurry to get it out and State U/E so archaic, there were limited options for administration.

The amount should have been lower given the final tallies.

That was a SOTU that will be recalled for years to come. Biden smacked down and silenced the Right and called them to join the American Dream. He made Trump look like the idiot that he always has been with aplomb!
Hell even Mike Johnson was nodding along with Biden's points and accomplishments!!! Seeing James Lankford mouthing his approval and nodding was particularly pleasing..... And Biden made Moldy Margerie look like the clown she was dressed like last night. Was she drunk? OMG she made her constituents look like the most ignorant people on Earth for electing a slob like her to the House to represent them! That must suck to wake up to realize what she made them look like this morning!
It's time to send Dystopian Donald to the clink and let's get on with Making America Great the right way! Joe stomped a mudhole and walked it dry last evening!!! God Bless America Baby!!!!

It's Russian programming. It all started in 1978 for Trump. I'd say Putin is proud of his baby boy!
I am a conservative Old School Republican but the new republicans have gone to far right and refuse to follow the democratic ideal of compromise and working together. They come up with a Border Policy lead by a very Conservative republican from Ok and everyone gave a little, it passes Senate and then Dumb Ass Trump the Criminal gives the word for political reasons to stop the bill and my Spineless Republican Congress changes their mind and stop it. I have had several business encounters with Trump and I can tell you he is a liar, cheap, only out for himself, and can't be trusted. I can not believe anyone with morals or a conscience could want him to represent our country. He coddles up to the communist, screwed the Ukraine because they wouldn't lie for him, accomplished very little like our republican House and is like always, all bluster, speaking at a fifth grade intellect. Good Luck! We had fun belittling him in court with our cases.
Per ABC news.
There is no national database that compares crimes committed by immigration status. In fact, only one state – Texas – does so. That means there’s no national database that breaks down crimes committed by native-born citizens or immigrants, or those in the country illegally, making it difficult to confirm or dispute the president’s numbers.
What available studies do show, however, is that overall, crime rates are lower among immigrant groups than they are among native-born Americans.

I wonder what the basis of these "studies" is. What is the baseline? What are the comparable statistics? Where are they being gathered? What immigrant "groups" are being referred to? Who is conducting the study? Etc. Etc.
