this is a very interesting comment in that his self-description is accurate, I checked his feed, definitely conservative:

I'm a center-right neolib and a moderate conservative. I'm not against means testing under normal life conditions, but these are not normal times. Now isn't the time for means testing. Stimulate the fuck outta this economy. Direct cash payments to everyone. PRONTO.

Another source of work for the next ten years: fraud cases arising from pandemic relief. I remember a huge volume of the US Attorney’s office’s cases in the mid 1990s was government program fraud arising from the 1994 Northridge quake. https://t.co/D1nkK0NyLP
