automatic stabilizers so we're going to talk聽 about this this is something i just saw newsweek聽聽
[7]
yesterday and i thought it was pretty interesting聽 because now we have a group that is talking about聽聽
[15]
these automatic stabilizers and we've talked聽 about automatic stabilizers before on this show聽聽
[20]
uh last year they were bringing up politicians聽 were bringing up this automatic stabilizers this聽聽
[26]
is how we could uh provide stimulus checks or聽 provide enhanced unemployment to the american聽聽
[32]
people and so that's what we're going to talk聽 about today but first off you guys can do me a聽聽
[36]

[40]
to the channel hit that little bell notification聽 that way you'll get notified any time we put out聽聽
[45]
a video okay so let's take a look at this聽 newsweek article here and the the headline is聽聽
[53]
automatic stimulus checks white house senators聽 way economic triggers for future relief聽聽
[60]
so what this would mean and let let's talk a聽 little bit about it before i show you some more聽聽
[66]
of the details but what this would mean is that聽 depending on the economy you can depend on the the聽聽
[74]
jobs numbers or or what have you we just saw jobs聽 numbers come out yesterday and they were not good聽聽
[81]
and so we might think that we're doing a lot聽 better than what we actually are there's different聽聽
[87]
reasons you have different politicians coming聽 out and saying you have some politicians coming聽聽
[93]
out and saying well that's because the enhanced聽 unemployment is giving people too much money and聽聽
[97]
they don't want to go back to work so that's one聽 argument you have other politicians saying look聽聽
[102]
things have changed and you still have you have聽 some people that are choosing not to go back to聽聽
[107]
work right now because they're still taking聽 care of the kids not all kids have been been聽聽
[111]
able to go back to school and so there are a lot聽 of different things that are going on right now聽聽
[117]
and also the the talk of the the wages we're聽 talking about increasing the minimum wage聽聽
[124]
some people are looking at some of these same聽 jobs and they're thinking you know what i need聽聽
[128]
to move into a different type of work because聽 if i'm an essential worker or if i'm a worker聽聽
[133]
that is really affected by pandemics then maybe i聽 want to get another job where i have a little more聽聽
[140]
flexibility where i can work in the office but i聽 can also work from home all these different things聽聽
[146]
are opening people's eyes to the fact that maybe i聽 should be looking for different type of employment聽聽
[152]
maybe i shouldn't be going back to that same job聽 because it's it's risky at this point we could be聽聽
[159]
facing another pandemic any time in the future and聽 do you want to put in another 10 years into a job聽聽
[165]
where you're just waiting for that next pandemic聽 to happen and then then you'd be out of a job聽聽
[171]
uh so investing in your future if you're聽 investing in your future you might be looking聽聽
[175]
towards some other other types of聽 of opportunities when it comes to聽聽
[179]
to work okay so let's let's go back聽 to the the stabilizers here now聽聽
[185]
what they're doing we have the economic security聽 project and they briefed now understand this聽聽
[192]
right now they're only briefing staff members聽 from the senate finance committee okay so they're聽聽
[198]
just briefing the staff members they're not聽 briefing senators okay as well as joe biden's聽聽
[204]
administration they're briefing staffers聽 there so they're not talking to the actual聽聽
[209]
politicians or just talking to the staff members聽 the staff members will relay this information back聽聽
[214]
to the politicians and if the politicians like聽 what they hear then they'll start talking about聽聽
[220]
it but we haven't gotten to that point yet and聽 so we're talking about both stimulus checks and聽聽
[226]
enhanced unemployment so depending on the economy聽 and this this is this would all have to be figured聽聽
[232]
out as far as what would trigger this but the way聽 the stabilizers work if the economy is doing bad聽聽
[237]
then these stabilizers will come in place and then聽 people would receive stimulus checks people would聽聽
[242]
receive enhanced unemployment automatically we聽 wouldn't have to wait for politicians to figure聽聽
[246]
out if they wanted to vote for it or against聽 it automatically these stabilizers would come聽聽
[251]
into place and automatically people would receive聽 those stimulus checks or the enhanced unemployment聽聽
[255]
now this is a good thing because it will avoid聽 politicians grandstanding or politicians uh聽聽
[261]
putting things on pause and we saw how this聽 happened in in the last stimulus packages we聽聽
[266]
saw that there was a huge delay from the cares act聽 the first stimulus checks that people received to聽聽
[272]
the second round of stimulus checks you received聽 the first one in march of 2020 the second stimulus聽聽
[279]
check didn't come until december people didn't聽 actually receive that check until in january聽聽
[284]
uh so you saw how how long it took for聽 politicians to to come together and try to聽聽
[290]
agree upon something so if you have the聽 stabilizers in place automatically that聽聽
[296]
stuff will happen depending on how our economy is聽 is doing so this is something i think could work聽聽
[302]
and i want you to understand you're not this聽 is not saying that you're going to get another聽聽
[307]
stimulus check okay this is not saying that they聽 are going to extend enhanced unemployment even聽聽
[313]
further down the road all this is saying is that聽 if the economy gets bad let's say three four years聽聽
[320]
down the road the economy uh has a downturn聽 and it goes down we go back into a recession聽聽
[326]
that's when those automatic stabilizers would聽 come into play and that's when you would receive聽聽
[330]
those stimulus checks and they enhanced聽 unemployment so you we might not see anything聽聽
[334]
when it comes to another round of stimulus checks聽 but the stabilizer would give us insurance in case聽聽
[342]
the economy goes goes in the wrong direction so聽 i think this is in the talk is that they want to聽聽
[347]
add this to either american families plan or the聽 american jobs plan these infrastructure bills that聽聽
[352]
they're looking at right now and i think this聽 is something that could potentially happen okay聽聽
[357]
so you're not going to receive a stimulus check聽 i want to make that clear you're not going to聽聽
[361]
receive a stimulus check unless the economy is聽 doing really bad and that's when this this trigger聽聽
[366]
would would happen so the way that i'm looking聽 at this this is one of those situations where you聽聽
[371]
could add this to one of those infrastructure聽 bills and it's not going to cost anything聽聽
[375]
as of right now now if it were triggered聽 we're talking about it could be 800 850聽聽
[382]
billion dollars that it could cost because聽 we're talking about both enhanced unemployment聽聽
[387]
as well as the stimulus checks and they cost about聽 the same about 400 uh 425 billion dollars for each聽聽
[394]
and so we'll have to follow it and see where聽 it goes but this is good news if the senators聽聽
[400]
do take this up and they say look this is聽 something that i think we should get behind聽聽
[405]
at the very least so if if they're not going to聽 go for another round of stimulus checks at least聽聽
[411]
they could put these stabilizers in place and聽 this is one of those situations where you can聽聽
[414]
contact your congress person and let them know i聽 think this is something that needs to at least be聽聽
[420]
the language needs to be in this bill it's聽 not going to cost anything okay it will not聽聽
[424]
cost anything unless we're in a situation where聽 our economy is so bad we need to have something聽聽
[430]
to stimulate the economy and then it聽 will balance everything out and it gives聽聽
[434]
businesses a little more assurance when it聽 comes to the economy they could be they could聽聽
[438]
rest assured knowing that if things are were to聽 get really bad then we'd be in a situation where聽聽
[445]
money would be coming stimulus would be coming聽 to to help those businesses i want to know what聽聽
