I don't think a less effective program is possible. Using income tax rates means those with the most would benefit the most, while those already barely getting by would be screwed. Those most likely to be harmed by the pandemic are those who would be helped the least.

I wrote "started by refunding". There is no reason we should have stopped there.

We are currently incentivizing many people to not work through unemployment. We should just give them that money unconditionally so that they go back to work.
