This is where money spent on COVID is going to. Nothing but money laundering and vote buying.

Does one have to live in Chicago? I live on the New Hampshire but would not mind a $500 check of free government cheese.

The lottery will give extra weight to individuals living in ... preexisting economic hardships.

Translation: whites need not apply. OK, OK, there will be a few whites who get the money, perhaps 10% (if that).

All Whites, according to the entrenched narrative, are born rich and never have to work for anything.

I was thinking the same thing. IF denied for being a non-resident, I could call that geographical discrimination and that I self identify as a Chicagoan.

I was wondering the same. I live several states away but I can identify as a resident. I can also identify as they/them if need be. Where do ‘we’ to request our checks?
