Words like "aid" or "stimulus" or "relief" are one word arguments. Who doesn't like aid? These are marketing BS words. We need to use more clear language like "economic transfer". This puts us in the right frame of mind to discuss who the money is being transferred from and to.

"Pardon me, Average Joe Taxpayer. We noticed you haven't been purchasing any tickets on American Airlines lately. In order to help you with this problem, we're going to take money from you and give it to American Airlines. What's that? No, you won't be getting free flights, you silly goose. We're just going to give them your money and you get nothing in return."
