Results for this Gallup poll are based on self-administered web surveys conducted March 15-21, 2021, with a random sample of 3,905 adults, aged 18 and older, who are members of the Gallup Panel. Gallup uses probability-based, random sampling methods to recruit its Panel members.
Say it ain't so, Gallup. Web surveys are pure bunk. Even the polling firms, 538 and 270towin will tell you as much.
Gallup also seems to be another outfit that is not going into any depth at all with the breakdown of ages, sexes and racial makeup of their polls anymore, of course only to obfuscate the illegitimate means that they use to come up with polling results that they intended to get in the first place.
Shame on The Hill, for doing what every other news outlet does and making the claim that "63 percent approve of COVID-19 relief bill" in their headline. Simply putting ": poll" on the end of that doesn't make up for it. Only intelligent people know that the polling is bullshit.
And despite all of that, it's still down 15% approval from when the Cares Act approval was by Gallup last year.

Quote:Focusing on the mental health aspects seems narrow scoped. Many people are weathering the storm just fine. And since you're always saying that education is just propaganda, why would you want the schools to be reopened?

We just totally fucked up 50 million K-12 students in our country alone for an entire year over this.
Gen Z is going to have enough problems as it is since they were born with an iPhone in their hands. You think the Millennials make for bad adults, wait till you get a load of Z.

OTOH, money troubles will affect nearly everyone, and THAT puts an emotional strain on the entire family.

Even though kids aren't learning anything of value in school as far as the teachers and curriculum are concerned, that's not to say that school isn't valuable. Particularly for kids who have two working parents and need to be carted around everywhere, or even more so for those who have terrible parents at home.
This last year is a catastrophe they're going to be paying for the rest of their lives.

Last-Minute Trump Rule Would Let Vaccine Makers Hike Prices Unchecked
Pfizer, Moderna, and other coronavirus vaccine makers have said repeatedly that they intend to hike prices on vaccines as early as this year, as the potential need for additional booster shots and future demand could lead to an unprecedented financial windfall.
One estimate projects that if Pfizer raised the price of its coronavirus vaccine from $19.50 to $175 per dose, as one Pfizer executive recently suggested, and if every adult American were to take it, the cost would be $44.7 billion — nearly 10 percent of all U.S. drug spending.
In the twilight weeks of Donald Trump’s presidency, his administration released a NIST rule designed to undercut the Bayh-Dole Act and weaken the government’s authority to march in and seize control of a patent when drugmakers fail to make medicine “available to the public on reasonable terms.”
That phrase has long been the law’s most contentious provision. It invokes a term of art that multiple federal courts have ruled relates to pricing and market-related decisions. The legislative history of the Bayh-Dole Act includes arguments that clearly state pricing considerations as a factor in determining “reasonable terms.”
The proposed rule, however, tightens the law’s definition to remove price as a factor — a change long demanded by industry.
The Biden administration, following the end of the open comment period next week, could simply revoke the Trump-era rule. That’s the hope of 35 members of Congress, who sent a letter to NIST this week to demand action.
“We write in strong opposition to the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST) proposal to revoke the federal government’s authority under the Bayh-Dole Act to protect the public from unreasonable prices on taxpayer-funded inventions,” reads the letter, which is led by Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas. “Pharmaceutical companies extract the highest prices from the sick and dying, and this proposal would embolden them.”

Imagine the hypocrisy of a government who will allow businesses to card people to get a job or buy groceries, but won't card people to vote in elections and gives millions of non-citizens free money from taxpayers.
