Why would anyone want a $2,4000 debit card - outrageously stupid. Everyone I know got check or deposit! I am fed up with the inconvenience and don’t even know if my bank will process it. Both named persons must go to bank for sure and will need the pin maybe even user name and password for Money Network! Disgusted citizen - who made this decision for us? Cash is king!

wow ... getting a handout from the government and all you can do is complain? Reminds me of the food stamp recipients in my former hometown. Handouts and they moan about how they had to make an effort to use it.

For those getting a check, that's the way to do it IMHO.

One thing is for sure, with the annual corporate billions in "handouts" to farmers, big oil, coal, etc., they don't have a problem figuring out how to access the money since they have a staff of well paid accountants & lawyers to help them figure it out.

Perhaps you should have used the terminology, “corporate farmers”. You may want to spend a year working on and operating a small farm for some insight.
