RE: What will you do with your $4,500 check?
It'll be interesting to see what — if anything — actually comes to pass. There is, of course, a precedent of sorts at the state level... the "Alaska Dividend." I mention that mostly because we have a Republican government, and Alaska DOES tend to be a "red state."
If it actually came to pass, $4500 would come close to covering one year of our back property taxes, so that's most likely where it would go. We've been at the edge of "tax foreclosure" for years, so it would be nice to move a little further away from that abyss...
Especially as it says it may be for each person (not each family), which could mean you get that $4,500 x 2 as you kept saying "we".
I'm not holding my breath at this point for this to actually happen, but it sounds like something will be coming. $4,500 seems like an awfully large amount, though the Donald did say he wanted to go "YUGEE".
Trump has shown himself to be in the camp where deficits dont matter. Plus he staked his reelection basically on the stock market and, with it tanking, he is looking at a tougher road.
I have a feeling that figure will have a tough time getting through Congress, especially the Senate.

The proposal I had heard previously was just for $1000 per household, but even that would be a welcome shot in the arm, given that all the recent uncertainty is already making itself felt.
