As someone who is well above the limit of getting any help these payouts pisses me off. The people that get them only have a temporary reprieve from their expenses and the money goes right into the pockets of the people profiting from the current high costs. Where if they actually fixed the problem everyone that is dealing with unaffordability would benefit long term while the people profiting off it would pay the cost.

It's literally the second easiest thing they can do. Easiest is to do nothing.

I know it helps people in need, for like a week. But it does nothing in the long run.

Looking forward to when PP and the Cons take over and completely ignore this so they can fight the....LGBTQ+ community, public healthcare/education sectors, and poor people.
