The United States government has sent out stimulus checks to some residents to help keep them afloat during the coronavirus quarantine. It’s all some people are talking about, so it’s no wonder that these checks have become the focus of a lot of jokes on the internet.

The checks are each worth 1,200 dollars and internet users are joking about how they’re already planning to buy TVs, laptops, and spend the money as soon as they can. While others are poking fun at the fact that it’s now the IRS sending them money, instead of the other way around.

“We can confirm that payments are beginning to arrive in some Americans’ accounts," a senior Treasury official told ABC News. Scroll down for the best stimulus check jokes that Bored Panda has compiled, upvote your faves, and let us know in the comments what you’re going to do with your check if you live in the US, dear Pandas. And read on for Bored Panda's interview with financial expert Sam Dogen, founder of the Financial Samurai blog, about stimulus checks and how much they'll help Americans out.

    Of course it's better than having nothing. It's still a joke when compared to most essential bills. It's not 1200 per month - it's 1200 FOR ALL THE PANDEMIC. Believe everyone when I say: it won't be over in 4 weeks. (in Germany, you at least get monthly the living-minimum granted, which is pretty low but it's monthly and they pay for health-insurance and rent and your gas-bills. Small businesses got instant-help-money up to 15000 € to help keep the running business-costs manageable. It's not helpful for everyone, and it's not a huge lot - some will still lose their business. But it's not f*** 1200 $ to last you over the course of the pandemic)

Apr 7, 2020 - "Italy ups coronavirus stimulus spending to €750 billion - nearly half its GDP." https://www.euronews.com And then we have: Mar 24, 2020 - "The U.K. has pledged more fiscal stimulus to fight the economic fallout from the coronavirus than during the global financial crisis a decade ago" bloomberg.com This took around a minute. Then let me also add that both countries, of course, have comprehensive healthcare systems and statutory sick pay.

    "So long as Americans are spending the money, that helps stimulate and support the economy. Although saving money is good, saving money actually doesn’t do much in the short run to help the economy. In the long run, maybe it helps by creating more financially secure people to not become a burden," Dogen from the Financial Samurai told us.

    This basic point seems to be far beyond the conception of most people: there's no such thing as a free lunch - someone is paying: it's being tacked onto the national debt. Who pays when the US national debt has to be serviced (meaning some payments have to be made that the govt. owes)? All US taxpayers, us. It isn't 'free money'.

    Exactly. You paid taxes so the government can use that money to do stuff for the country. Like paving streets and paying schools and paying for water-cleaning and federal agencies (like for example the CDC). You already PAID for that stuff, and it is not "handouts" or "a gift" if the goverment does those things for you. Of course one can argue that nobody paid taxes so one day the President could give every citizen 1200$, but I'll wager that it's probably a lot more useful than, for example, buying a tank or a submarine or guns for the military. It's actually the Government's JOB to protect its people, but somewhere along the long line of presidents (and I'm not excluding the Democratic ones), that job-description got muddled and eventually, lost.

And paying taxes on this $1,200.00. And people think the monster-in-chief "cares about us" and is doing this to "help us?" UNBELIEVABLE.

    Dogen believes that 1,200 dollars per person should help individuals for at least a month. "If you add on the extra 600 dollars a month in unemployment benefits, that’s a decent amount of money," he said.

    "For example, in California, you can get 4,200 dollars a month in unemployment benefits now. And then if you add on another 1,200, that’s 5,600 dollars. It’s really the added unemployment benefits that will really help those who have lost their jobs," Dogen pointed out.

    It isn't a stimulus check. You are get back a portion of your tax dollars as an Economic Impact Support check because the government had to shut down the economy and it's to help you make ends meet and for businesses to be able to make payroll without going under. If you don't want it give it to charity or help family members that are out of work.

    An American here, I do wish we had something like the Norwegian-style healthcare system instead of our bizarre/horrible system. That being said, in the US the IRS also publishes the info on ways to reduce your tax burden, and you can easily apply that knowledge here when you file online through the websites we have for that, or if you go to a tax preparer. Nobody's hiding info from us on ways we can legally reduce our taxes.

    The BBC reports that President Donald Trump’s name will be printed on the paper checks that will be sent out to financially-struggling Americans. This is the very first time that a US president’s name will show up on a federal government handout.

    Not surprisingly, some are worried that this decision might delay checks arriving. The president denied that there will be a delay, as did the Treasury Department. However, two senior IRS officials told the Washington Post that the first batch of checks might arrive slower because of this.

    Odd but true: my wife and I are buying a house now... but I teach and she's a medical worker, so we're recession resistant. However the only reason we could is because they dropped rates so low we could afford to borrow.

    "You are getting your money late because the President thinks it is more important that his name be on the cheque than that you are able to pay your bills on time," Democratic Senator Brian Schatz shared his opinion on Twitter.

    The stimulus checks are part of a 2 trillion (that’s right, trillion) dollar relief package that will help out more than 80 million US citizens. And Americans need it now more than ever. Around 16 million people lost their jobs in the US just in the past month and the situation may get worse before it gets better.

    If the "child" pays their own way, they shouldn't be claimed but, if they are in a situation like me, where my daughter is starting college this year (well.. supposed too who knows right now) and where I pay for her tuition/books, her food, the roof over her head and everything else. I will claim her as a dependent.

    Parents are Not collecting a $1200 stimulus check for you. The $1200 Is for each independent worker/retiree, or spouse. The $500 dependent check is only for children up to 16 years old. If you are a college student, no check. I am guessing you are at least 17 as well as a student, no check. There are a lot of people who do not qualify for the stimulus checks. Granted, it doesn't make sense. But it is not your parent's fault.

    This is just factually incorrect. In fact, it was the lower income Americans that got theirs first.....

    no, not true most of us "lower income" folks are still waiting, watching higher income folks waster more of their money

    This is 100% not true. If you make less then 75,000 you will get your check. Unless you are homeless, because they cant mail it to you, and won't just help the poor, because this country is a joke...

    F**k off mate are you an American Native? If not you should backup and go back to your original country from where you/family came from. Why not, this would leave more space for the American Natives.
