Unless you live a lavish lifestyle, $80K will have you living comfortably pretty much anywhere in the country outside of NYC, Boston, LA, SoCal, Bay Area, Seattle, Miami, Hawaii and even then it's doable.

I’ll live incredibly comfortable with 80k even in LA. Y’all must be out of touch and have high standards of living.

Average man in America only makes $47K. And that’s all they’ll ever make.
So, $80k is astounding.

I’ll put it this way, I don’t think 80k is enough for the government to tell you to go f yourself. Especially since it’s off your old taxes. They don’t know your current situation.
im not putting the people who make 47k against the people who make 80k.

80K in Michigan is living lovely. Wish I could make that at my job, but I got to coach/train and work just to get near there haha.
I know what you are saying though bro. I get it.

The way I see it is they just needed a number. Any number would’ve been argued against. 99,000 versus 100,000 or 80,000 versus 79,000. They just made a stopping point with no real merit or reason as to why. If somebody knows any different I’ll stand corrected

I’d rather every American got it vs cut off at 80k.
if the rich is truly only 1% then whatever.
if they got money to bomb tf out of Syria and spend 32 million on arming the capitol in mn for the George Floyd cop trial they got the money for us.

what I'm trying to illustrate is that 80k is THE CEILING for maybe 8 out of 10 people...little less than half of Americans make "$15 or less."
Almost half of all Americans work in low-wage jobs
The low-wage workforce is part of every local U.S. economy, but it takes the biggest toll in the South and West.

Depends on your personal lifestyle obviously, but yeah $80K is doable anywhere and more than enough most places.

Live in DC, once I hit 80k, I could stack 2k a month easy.

Not factoring in cost of living is still the biggest error in these stimulus checks. 80k in DC is different than 80k in Charlotte. By no means am I saying you’re struggling off that salary, but your quality of life would be noticeably different.

that’s almost one of your paychecks each month after taxes. if you save 2k, you’ll have around 3k to spend. you pay a mortgage or rent? obviously you don’t have kids

Cost of living is more reason to give it to everyone imo.
not the guy in Nevada’s fault he doesn’t live in an overpriced city.

Ya imo Biden & Dems really bungled this from the start. 2k then 1.4k then fast phase out, etc . The cost was incremental and peanuts compared to the size of the total package.
I swear they be purposely trying to leave the door open for the GOP smfh

A large portion of Dems in Congress are still white ppl with net worths of 1M+. You can only expect them to care about the common man so much
