On German media, I've read that the administration might indeed be planning direct checks for some hard hit Americans.

Honestly, this is the right time to try at least a limited form of UBI.

If this got America to accept UBI as a viable and necessary thing then the virus might prevent more deaths than it caused

Plenty of European powers are more productive per person yet work many weeks less every year than America.

We're not very efficient in America, but we basically just push forward really hard to make up the difference.

I hope Trump's administration does go forward with an economic relief effort for adults. I lost my job due to covid-19, so some Yang Gang magic would be nice.
