Republicans are mostly just proposing their solution for everything, tax cuts. So it's the same debate we always have, tax cuts vs direct assistance.

You could also rephrase it as stuff that will not do anything to stop the spread of the virus (tax cuts) vs stuff that is recommended by health experts to mitigate the spread of the virus by idneitifying the afflicted and incentivising them to not make decisions that will impact society negatively.

Is it even a debate anymore? The last 40 years of history have shown that tax cuts only benefit the wealthy.
