Why did O'Dumbass give stimulus checks when we had to pay it back. Some form of stimulus.
Bush and Obama gave out loans, which have to be paid back, to companies. Not to citizens.

You haven't received a stimulus check from Obama, let alone one you have to pay back. You have received a payroll tax cut from Obama. Bush gave you a stimulus check, but you didn't have to pay it back.

??? Bush did that - Bush enacted and gave the first corporate bailouts.

Now, the Dems have proposed a tax on those large bonuses (which was included in the original law, that there has to be some legal provision enacted to get the money back), but the Repubs are screaming against that tax.
