Umthetho oyilwayo olandelayo wokuvuselela i-coronavirus kufuneka ubuncinci ube mkhulu ngokuphindwe kane kuneNkokeli enkulu yeSenate uMitch McConnell's (R-Ky.) $500 yeebhiliyoni zesindululo, abezoqoqosho baxelele iSalon.

ICongress isahleli ivaliwe kwibhili emva kukaMcConnell yaliwe ngokuphindaphindiweyo the $3.4 trillion HEROES Act epasiswe yiNdlu emva ngoMeyi, kunye I-2.2 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ze-compromise offer Iidemokhrasi zeNdlu zivunyiwe kwinyanga ephelileyo.

UMcConnell uthe kule veki ibhili "mkhulu kakhulu" kunesindululo sakhe se-500 yeebhiliyoni zeedola "ayisiyondawo endicinga ukuba sizimisele ukuya kuyo." Ukanti izazi ngezoqoqosho zithi ilizwe lifuna ubuncinci i-2 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukunceda uqoqosho ukuba lubuyele apho lwalukhona ngaphambi kobhubhani, kanye njengokuba i-US ingena kweyona nto imbi yesibetho se-coronavirus okwangoku.

Ukulibaziseka kukaMcConnell kusongela ukwenza mandundu ngakumbi imiba efunwa yi-bill ye-stimulus.

"Ukulibaziseka ekunikezeni uvuselelo ngokuqinisekileyo kuya konyusa inani lemali efunekayo ukubuyisela uqoqosho," uJoseph Stiglitz, ingcali yezoqoqosho ephumelele ibhaso likaNobel kunye nonjingalwazi weYunivesithi yaseColumbia, uxelele iSalon. “Amaphepha okulinganisa amakhaya neefemu ayawohloka kwaye imizi-mveliso iyabhanga. Ukuzigrumba kumngxunya onzulu kubiza kakhulu kunokuthintela ukuhla kumngxuma onzulu - omnye umzekelo apho i-aphorism yokuthintela ixabisa iponti yonyango iyasebenza.

Ukonyuka kosulelo lwe-coronavirus kwiiveki zamva nje kuye yongeza ingxaki. Inani lamatyala amatsha aqinisekisiweyo elizweni batsho phezulu kwi-150,000 okokuqala ngqa NgoLwesine, nangona inani lokwenyani linokuba phezulu kakhulu kuba amazinga okuphumelela kumazwe athile acebisa uvavanyo luphosa inani elikhulu lamatyala.

Lo mba awufanelanga ukuba ube ngumba weendleko kodwa ube ngumba wemfuno, utshilo uMichael Graetz, owayesakuba ligosa eliphezulu leSebe lezeMali nokwangumbhali osebenzisana naye. "Ingcuka eseMnyangweni: Ingozi yokungakhuseleki kwezoqoqosho kunye nendlela yokulwa nayo."

Amashishini amancinci ayavala kwilizwe lonke kwaye, ngaphandle kokuvulwa kwakhona okuninzi, kusekho abantu abaninzi abangaphangeliyo kunalo naliphi na ixesha ukusukela kuDado olukhulu. “Ke kufuneka senze le nto siyenzileyo kuMthetho weCARES,” utshilo uGraetz, ngoku ongunjingalwazi eColumbia. Oko kubandakanya iimali-mboleko ezongezelelweyo kunye nezibonelelo zokugcina amashishini evulekile, imali eyaneleyo yokubonelela ubuncinci ngeedola ezingama-300 ukuya kwiidola ezingama-400 ngeveki kwizibonelelo zokungaphangeli, inkxaso-mali yokunceda izibhedlele ezisokolayo, omnye umjikelo we-1,200 yeedola zokuhlola ukunceda abantu ukuba bahlawule irenti, kunye nenkxaso-mali yokunceda urhulumente kunye norhulumente. oorhulumente basekuhlaleni “abaphelelwe yimali.”

Onke la manyathelo ongeza ukuya kuthi ga kwi-2 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, waqikelela.

“Uthetha ngeengxaki ezinzulu ekufuneka zisonjululwe,” utshilo uGraetz. “Kufana nokuthengela abantwana bakho xa kuqala isikolo. Awundibuzi ukuba ndizakusebenzisa malini, ubuza ukuba bafuna ntoni.”

UGraetz waxoxa ngelithi urhulumente kufuneka afumane uqoqosho kwiinyanga ezintandathu ezizayo de kubekho “isitofu sokugonya esisebenzayo” esisasazwa ngokubanzi.

Loo mbono ukwabelwana ngayo nenani elikhulu leengcali zezoqoqosho. Ukungqiyama ngasekhohlo Iziko loHlahlo-lwabiwo-mali kunye neMiba ePhambili yoMgaqo-nkqubo Kuqikelelwa ukuba kuyakuthatha ubuncinci i-2 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukubonelela ngee- $400-ngeveki ngeenzuzo zokungaphangeli, ukutya kunye noncedo lwezindlu, kunye noncedo lukarhulumente norhulumente wasekhaya ngaphandle kokuthathela ingqalelo imali yovavanyo lwentsholongwane kunye nezinye iinzame ezinxulumene nobhubhane. Ezinye iingcali ngezoqoqosho ziqikelela ukuba kusenokufuneka $ 3 trillion kwi $ 4 trillion ukunceda uqoqosho lube ngcono.

UJosh Bivens, umlawuli wophando kwiziko lomgaqo-nkqubo wezoQoqosho elixhomekeke ekhohlo, waxoxa ukuba indlela yokubuyisela izakuthatha iminyaka kunye nenkxaso-mali eninzi kakhulu kunokuba kuxoxwa ngayo kumjikelo olandelayo woncedo.

Ukubuyisela izinga lentswela-ngqesho kwi-3.5% ebingaphambi kokuba ubhubhane ufune malunga neebhiliyoni ezingama-800 zeedola ngonyaka kwinkxaso-mali yokuvuselela ephakathi kwe-1.5 yezigidi zezigidi zezigidi zeedola kunye ne-2 yezigidi zezigidi zeedola ukuba ibiyeyamanyathelo okuvuselela "asebenza kakhulu" njengezibonelelo zokungaphangeli kumanyano kunye noncedo lukarhulumente nolwasekhaya, watsho eSalon.

“Ke, nangona kunjalo, asinakuvele siyicime njenge-spigot, kuba oko kuya kuba liwa elikhulu lemali,” utshilo, esongeza ukuba kuyakuthatha enye i-400 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ngonyaka kwiminyaka eliqela “ukulawula kancinci inguquko. imfuno yokuba yinkuthazo ekhokelwa kwicandelo labucala elikhokelwayo. "

Ukujolisa kwinqanaba elisezantsi lokungaphangeli kuya kufuna enye i-100 leebhiliyoni zeerandi ngonyaka kwiminyaka eliqela, waqikelela.

Eyona nto iphambili kwiingxoxo ibikubungakanani beenzuzo zokungaphangeli. Iidemokhrasi ziye zaqina kwimfuno yazo yokugcina i-600 yeedola-ngeveki yonyuso lomanyano olubandakanyiweyo kuMthetho we-CARES ngelixa amaRiphabhlikhi etyhala inani elikufutshane ne-300 yeedola ukuya kwi-400 yeedola ngeveki. Abantu baseRiphabhlikhi baye baphikisa ukuba inani eliphezulu alibakhuthazi abasebenzi ukuba babuyele emisebenzini yabo nangona izifundo ziye zafumanisa ngokuphindaphindiweyo ukuba ukonyuswa kwe-federal ngesisa akuzange kube nempembelelo kwimarike yabasebenzi. Uphando lwe-EPI luqikelelwa ehlotyeni ukuba ukunciphisa izibonelelo ukuya kwi-400 yeedola kucutheke uqoqosho kwaye kudle izigidi zemisebenzi.

Kodwa ngeenyanga ezininzi ukususela ekubeni izibonelelo ziphelelwe lixesha, uGraetz uthe iiDemokhrasi kufuneka zibambe kwaye zivumelane nenani eliphantsi ngomdla wokufumana imali ngokukhawuleza kubantu abayidingayo.

“Ndicinga ukuba kufuneka bavume ukwenza kancinci ukuze bafumane imali. Iveki neveki edlulayo ingaphantsi kwe-$400 kubantu abangaphangeliyo,” utshilo. “Amakhaya abo asemngciphekweni. Ukuba awukwazi ukufumana i-$ 600, kufuneka wamkele i-$ 400. Inkqubo yedemokhrasi yaseMelika yakhelwe phezu kokulalanisa. ”

Enye ingxaki ibikuncedo olungaphezulu kwizixeko ezixineneyo kunye namazwe. Ingeniso yerhafu koorhulumente basekhaya yomile ngexesha lokuvalwa komsebenzi kwaye umonakalo kulindeleke ukuba ube mandundu njengoko ilizwe lingena kwindawo ekulindeleke ukuba ibe bubusika obubi. Ngelixa iidemokhrasi ziye zafuna i-1 yezigidigidi zeedola zoncedo koorhulumente besixeko kunye norhulumente, uMcConnell usithathe esi siphakamiso njenge "ibheyile yelizwe eliluhlaza." Ucebise ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka ukuba ilizwe malifanele "makhe amazwe atshone," engekho mthethweni, kwaye ityhalwe ukuba ingabandakanyi nayiphi na imali entsha yamazwe kwisindululo sakhe sikaSeptemba.

UGraetz uthe ukusilela ukusindisa izixeko kunye namazwe "kuya kuyenza mandundu ingxaki" ngokubangela ukudendwa kwabantu abaninzi.

“Sijonge ezinye iinyanga ezintandathu ubuncinci oorhulumente basekhaya kunye noorhulumente basekhaya abayifumani ingeniso abayidingayo ukuze basebenze,” utshilo. “Andisiqondi isizathu sokuba iCongress, ekwaziyo ukubonelela ngemali, ithathe isigqibo sokuba ingathanda ukubona oku njengethuba lokudendwa kwabasebenzi bakarhulumente. Kukho le ntsomi yokuba oorhulumente basekhaya kunye noorhulumente basekhaya banokulungelelanisa uhlahlo lwabiwo-mali lwabo ukuba bayabususa ubuqhophololo, inkcitho kunye nokuxhatshazwa. Kodwa endaweni yoko, baza kunqumla abafundisi-ntsapho, amapolisa kunye nabacimi-mlilo.”

UGraetz wachaza ukuba ngelixa uninzi lwamazwe akhokelwa yiDemokhrasi aye athwaxwa kakhulu entwasahlobo, iindawo apho izibhedlele ngoku zigcwaliswa "kumazwe aseRiphabhlikhi."

"Iirhuluneli zaseRiphabhlikhi zidinga imali njengoko iirhuluneli zeDemokhrasi zisenza," utshilo. "Olu ayisiyonxalenye ebomvu yelizwe-blue xa kujongwa le ngxaki."

UGraetz uthe wabelana ngeenkxalabo zeRiphabhlikhi malunga nefuthe lexesha elide kwityala kunye nentsilelo kodwa "le yimeko kaxakeka kwaye kufuneka iqwalaselwe."

“Iindleko zabantu zikhulu kakhulu,” utshilo. “Ndicinga ukuba le yimeko kaxakeka. Urhulumente kufuneka aphendule kwiimeko zikaxakeka. Yaphendula ngo-9/11. Umda wale nto mkhulu kakhulu kunomonakalo we-9/11. Kwaye kufuneka iphendule. Sichithe i-10 yeebhiliyoni zeebhiliyoni zokulwa iimfazwe kuMbindi Mpuma ngokuphendula i-9/11. Kufuneka sichithe le nto kufuneka siyichithe ngoku. ”

UBivens ukhuthaze abenzi bomthetho ukuba baqwalasele ezinye iimpembelelo zexesha elide zamanyathelo oncedo lwe-coronavirus.

“Olu qikelelo lweendleko ngokusisiseko zizinto ezigxile kwi-laser ekuphuculeni izinga lentswela-ngqesho,” utshilo. "Sifuna okungaphezulu kunoko ukuze sibe noluntu olunesidima ngokubanzi olubonelela ngokhuseleko olubanzi lwezoqoqosho."

La manyathelo abandakanya "i-inshurensi enzulu yentlalontle," kubandakanya ukusebenzela "ukuqhawula i-inshurensi yezempilo kunye nemisebenzi," utshilo, kunye notyalo-mali kukhathalelo lobuntwana kunye nokukhathalela, kunye nemigaqo kunye nemithetho "exhobisa abasebenzi ukuba bafumane iqhekeza elikhulu lepayi. .”

"Inqanaba eliphantsi le-Covid elisezantsi lokungaphangeli lifihlile ukuba uqoqosho lwethu lubolile kangakanani na ekuziseni ukhuseleko lokwenyani kubo bonke," wongeze watsho.

Kodwa akunakwenzeka ukuxela kwangaphambili umda ogcweleyo wamanyathelo oncedo afunekayo ngenxa yokusasazeka okungalawulekiyo kwentsholongwane kwilizwe liphela ebonisa kungabikho mqondiso wokucotha.

Ngokucacileyo, ingozi enkulu kuyo yonke into kwiinyanga ezimbalwa ezizayo yintsholongwane, kwaye asinakuchitha imali eyaneleyo kwiinzame zokuyiqulatha loo nto.
