Give back your stimulus and defeat the socialists

For those of you that supported Trump when he gave a $2 trillion dollar tax cut that mostly benefited the very rich, and for those of you that continued to back him when he gave his idea of a COVID stimulus package that gave most of the benefits to the wealthiest Americans, and to those that believed him when he called Joe Biden and the Democrats the new 'socialist” party, I have a great idea.
You can show Biden and all the liberal Democrats that you want no part of the socialist party. All you have to do is refuse to accept the $1,400.00 check that will soon be in the mail. If they direct deposit, just take your checkbook and write a check to the government and mail it right back in.
That will show everyone you are not just a bunch of hypocrites and that you mean business. If in the last four years your business or farm has benefited from any government subsidies you could really make a huge statement by sending that money back as well.
That will teach those socialists a lesson they will never forget
