If Congress really wanted to help the people financially they should suspend the collection of all payroll taxes. The money used to finance the stimulus packages is not a gift, it is a loan that must be repaid.
The government has assets in excess of $100 trillion dollars and the stimulus funds could be transferred from the government's hidden bank accounts instead of being borrowed from the FED,

Where is the proof of your assertion? Not about taxes but about having to repay the "stimulus" money.
I also am not understanding your statement that stimulus is not a gift and must be paid back. I have never heard of this at all. I have actually read where you don't even have to claim it on your income tax as it was not EARNED.
On the internet Rod Class in 2017: All political offices are vacant. These pretenders of government are nothing more than private contractors. Use of deception to gain an unlawful advantage is Fraud and nullifies their contracts plus they are prohibiting the free exercise of honest Religion whatever you may concieve it to be!

It is a matter of fact that we will have to repay all of it including the trillions going to privately owned big business and all the government agencies [which are also privately owned big business] that are getting huge windfalls from this 4+ trillion dollar package.
The people, and especially the working poor, are always the ones who pay for money borrowed by Govco for its welfare programs as this one is. Its really a welfare program for the wealthy Elites as they will get billions shoved into their coffers while the man on the street gets a paltry $1200 for his roll of seeing most of the repayment burden loaded on his back.
But, but, where's the proof? Lets say that there's a billion dollars in circulation and a chicken costs a dollar. You've been thrifty and saved a $1,000 dollars. You feel pretty confident because you know that, even if times get tough, you can have a chicken in the pot for 1000 days.
Along comes the creeps in Congress who want to stay in power so they promise the people all kinds of goodies to get re-elected. Govco then borrows from the Rothschild/Vatican mafia another billion dollars to fund the promises, [most of which goes to family members and cronies] and the rest buys Nike tennis shoes for poor ghetto kids. By the way, one of the senators has a huge amount of stock in Nike.
Before we had 1 billion dollars in circulation and chickens were a dollar each. All of the sudden the economy has been infused with another billion dollars and we now have 2 billion in circulation chasing the same number of chickens. What do you suppose is going to happen to the price of chickens? That's right, Mike, the price of chickens will jump to $2 each and you have just been taxed out of 50% of your purchasing power and your savings just got cut in half. That's why inflation is always referred to as the hidden tax that affects everyone, but the working poor feel the pain the most.
WE ALWAYS PAY FOR EVERY DIME OF GOVERNMENT BORROWING AND ITS LARGESS!!!
