Yet, despite those speed bumps, the economy appears to have already turned a corner. Over seven million jobs have been created in the last two months, retail sales are up, and home new homes sales had a record May. Any stimulus should be directed at the root cause of our recession: dealing with Covid. I know it isn't popular to talk about in some Republican circles, but we still have a testing problem in this country. My son was tested recently; we had to wait 5 to 7 days for results. My daughter wanted to get tested before visiting her grandparents, but was told she didn't qualify. That is simply inexcusable at this point in the pandemic.
But whatever lawmakers decide to do, they should tread carefully, as there are very real risks to additional stimulus.
