The US is about to give out a lot of money! Is Amazon making too much money causing public outrage?

Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed an emergency agenda to comprehensively upgrade the next round of $908 billion subsidy plan, directly increasing the subsidy program that was originally planned to provide $600 per U.S. citizen to $2,000 per person!

The bill has been passed by the House of Representatives with 275 votes to 134 and is about to enter the Senate for a vote. This proposal may be established as a supplement to the subsidy bill already signed by Trump, so that the subsidies can be distributed to Americans as soon as possible.

However, this additional $2,000 subsidy is conditional, and eligibility for the subsidy will be determined by the person's most recent tax return. If an individual's annual income is less than $75,000 or a couple's annual income is less than $150,000, they will receive the full $2,000 subsidy.

For every $100 increase in personal income over $75,000, the subsidy will be reduced by $5. This means that individuals with an annual income of more than $99,000 and couples with an annual income of more than $198,000 are not eligible for this subsidy.

Federal unemployment benefits in the United States were stopped last Saturday (26th). About 12 million unemployed Americans lost this important subsidy on the second day of Christmas. Coupled with the lockdown and unemployment caused by the epidemic, this new subsidy plan is crucial to the US economy and American residents and must be implemented as soon as possible.

Therefore, this subsidy bill also includes a part on extending unemployment benefits. The US government is speeding up the passage of the subsidy bill, and it may be signed and passed at the beginning of next month and begin distributing subsidies.

According to the subsidy distribution process in April, this subsidy of US$2,000 per person will be distributed about two weeks after the bill is signed . American citizens who have complete bank information recorded in the IRS will be given priority to receive this subsidy, and government agencies will deposit it directly into these people’s bank accounts.

In the first three weeks after the first batch of subsidies are distributed, a total of about 90 million people will receive subsidies of US$2,000, and then another tens of millions of people will receive subsidies in the form of checks. This process may last about a month.

The amount of this subsidy is nearly double that of the subsidy in April! In April, many sellers experienced a small boom due to the subsidy.

With so much more money being distributed this time, it will definitely bring in more shopping orders, especially for sellers of daily necessities, who will also be able to make a small fortune during the traditional off-season at the beginning of the year.

Although the subsidy plan is more beneficial to Amazon, my brother-in-law did not have a peaceful Christmas because Amazon made a lot of money during the epidemic and even squeezed the living space of traditional small and medium-sized enterprises. During Christmas, my brother-in-law's New York mansion was surrounded again.

Protesters surrounded the mansion suite of my brother-in-law, which is worth nearly 100 million US dollars, to protest Amazon's crazy profits during the epidemic without making due contributions. They said that Amazon has become the biggest winner of the epidemic, but is unwilling to spend more money to protect the health of workers. Instead, it doubles the exploitation of front-line employees, and everyone has to bear a workload far beyond the usual.

Protesters even made a "Christmas tree" out of Amazon delivery boxes and placed it in front of the brother-in-law's apartment to express their protest against Amazon's uncontrolled expansion and irresponsibility to the environment.

We have made a video clip for the detailed content, and you can view it from the link of our video account below.

This kind of protest also occurred earlier this month, and this time it was more intense than the last time, which also shows that the current situation on the front line of Amazon warehouses is not optimistic. Under the double blow of the epidemic and the holiday shopping peak, the impact on warehouse capacity is very serious.

In the next two days, everyone should pay more attention to new developments in logistics. Be sure to maintain sufficient inventory for subsequent sales. Remember to calculate the possible shopping boom in January (because of the US$2,000 subsidy). If you need urgent replenishment in the near future, you can consider the official AGL advance listing service, which allows you to sell the goods directly while they are in transit.
