Are people seriously pretending that giving $2k to literally everyone is better than targeting support to people who lost their jobs?

To my knowledge the full 2k checks don't go to everyone, so this a mute point.

I'm fine with giving it to everyone as long as it's clawed back next year through the tax system.

It should go to anyone who had income loss as a result of the pandemic (if that isn't the case already?). In this case, 2k is even the bare minimum. With 24 trillion in debt, money should only be given to those in need.
