that will fall far behind what they would have gotten if the money had been used as it was supposed to be used -- to assist in housing. And why the hell is every little category of people getting money, but not the general public who are dying from the price increases caused by his "beautiful" tariffs. I've had about enough of it! Military, farmers, business people... all those he thinks falls in line with his belief in himself as "daddy." Pfft!
