Some people don't have bank accounts and some people applied and didn't give a routing number. States used to send checks but some now like to send ATM cards which can be used like credit cards. When the government checks and debit cards go out lots of breakins of mail facilities. Not a violent crime worthy of prosecution according to leftards.

What prevents people from getting a bank account? Environmental racism?

Mark Cuban had a great idea.

If you don’t have a checking account, open one. Write a $1,200 check and deposit it into your account. Federal Reserve guarantees the check to the bank. Delays? Gone. Liquidity? Instant. Who? Everyone. Bureaucracy? none.
Work out the “fairness” issues with the tax code.

Wait until 2 weeks from now. Suddenly the trust the Government folks will be Tug regulars.

This is bullshit. My address and banking info have changed since the last tax return. I see people I know getting $1200 but I haven’t gotten mine because of the changes and the site sucks and basically just tells me to be patient. It’s not the end of the world, but I did want the money.

JFC, this beyond sad.

Why on Earth are they doing this? What’s wrong with depositing unemployment benefits in people’s bank accounts?

“But the state instead told her that the money had been deposited on a state-issued debit card, which she never received. She cannot get anyone on the phone to find out where it is.”

My buddy applied a few weeks ago. He got the debit card, but it took a long time. He says it's a clusterfuck. All to flatten the curve....hero politicians!
