But nobody is being punished here. You are not any worse off than you were yesterday before the aid was announced. If you had known in advance that this aid was coming would you have stopped paying your rent? Would you have kept paying and sacrificed just because you could due to some sense of civic duty? Did you return your stimulus check because you didn't actually need it and could have sacrificed more?
If you would have stopped paying then you're just mad that you didn't get out of your obligations and sacrificed when you didn't have to and feel like because of that you deserve it more, not that meeting one's obligations is something holy.
I understand the anger. But we're supposed to take a step back and not be jealous about good things happening to others.
Good for the people that didn't sacrifice and had a better quality life during COVID as a result. How could I ever wish anything else on them?
