People are making funny jokes about the $1,200 stimulus check the Americans received and it’s hilarious

Leaders in the US Congress reached an agreement on Sunday on the $ 900 billion aid package that will help the economy, but also citizens, in the context of the worsening pandemic, the vote will most likely be given on Monday.

The economic stimulus package will be the second largest in US history, after the $ 2.3 trillion in March.

"Finally, we have the agreement between the parties that the country needs," said Senate Republican Majority Leader Mitch McCOnnell after months of heated negotiations.

Republican and Democratic leaders said the aid package should have enough support to be voted on in both chambers of the US Congress.

President Donald Trump is drafting the law and will enact it, White House spokesman Ben Williamson said.

The program will make direct payments of $ 600 to certain categories of people, and unemployment benefits will be increased by $ 300 per week.

It also includes billions of dollars for small businesses, food aid, vaccine distribution and health. In addition, it extends a moratorium on foreclosures in real estate and offers 25 billion in rent subsidies.

In many countries, in some cities, renting housing costs "space" money. England, Singapore, Switzerland, and even Monaco - this is where it is costly to have your apartment or house and rent a home. The States are not far behind them.

 

They say that in the same USA, to make financial ends meet, the cost of rent should not exceed 1/3 of the monthly salary; otherwise, nothing. But there are several cities in America where the price tags are so vast and unbearable that not all residents can pull rent in them.

 

How much money do you need to rent an apartment or house in the States?

 

We have compiled a list of 25 examples, or rather, the average cost of renting in a particular city, according to the current average price of rented housing (in recent months it has grown significantly) with one bedroom and the average income (month/year) required to rent this is housing (not luxury houses or apartments). It will be interesting!

8. San Diego, California: $7,953/month or $95,436/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $2,651.

 

San Francisco has the most expensive rental housing in the US: for an American family to rent a two-bedroom apartment, their income must be at least $68.33 per hour. This is three times higher than the national average of $24.9. This is stated in the National Low Income Housing Coalition's report, which deals with housing affordability problems.

 

In their report, the authors assumed that the average tenant earns income by working at least 40 hours weekly, 52 weeks a year.

 

Other California cities also made it into the top 10 most expensive cities to rent. In second place is San Jose ($58.67), and in third is Santa Cruz ($58.10). The top ten also included the Californian cities of Oakland, Santa Maria (with Santa Barbara), Santa Ana, and San Diego. Closes the entire ten most significant cities in the state of Los Angeles. The only cities in the top ten not located in California were Boston ($44.92 an hour) and Hawaiian Honolulu ($39.87).

 

On average, to rent a two-bedroom apartment or house in California, a tenant's income is $39.03, the highest of any state. California has remained at the top of the list despite a significant drop in rental prices during the pandemic. Over the past year, according to Business Insider, housing prices in San Francisco have fallen by 30%. Many IT professionals and workers in Silicon Valley during the period of remote work changed their place of residence to areas such as the Lake Tahoe region (the border between the states of Nevada and California), Texas, Austin, and others.

 

9. Dallas, TX: $4,419/month or $53,028/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $1,473.

 

10 San Jose, California: $8,355/month or $100,260/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $2,785.

 

11. Austin, TX: $5,145/month or $61,740/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $1,715.

 

12. Jacksonville, Florida: $3,675/month or $44,100/year

16. Indianapolis, Indiana: $3,285/month or $39,420/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $1,095.

 

In second place in the ranking is the state of Hawaii, whose residents must earn $ 37.69 to rent housing. At the same time, if a relatively high salary for Californians offsets the high cost of rent, the island state's residents cannot boast salaries proportional to the high cost of housing. The average wage in Hawaii is $17.56, which is less than half the amount required for rent.

 

In third place is Massachusetts, where the average cost of a two-bedroom apartment is $1,885 per month (corresponding to an hourly wage of $36.24). The Boston accumulation is located in Massachusetts - one of the most comprehensive educational, cultural, and commercial centers in the United States, as well as a point of attraction for specialists from all over the country and from abroad, which largely determines the high cost of housing.

 

In fourth place is New York, where rental housing will cost, on average in the state, $1,770. To afford a two-bedroom apartment, New Yorkers would, in theory, have to work almost three permanent minimum-wage jobs ($12.5 an hour in the state).

 

The US capital closes the top five. A Washington resident must earn $33.94 an hour to rent housing, which is in high demand in the city. Due to the large number of visitors arriving in Washington to build a career, the American capital is among the leaders in the country in terms of the rental market.

 

17. San Francisco, California: $9,285/month or $111,420/year

The current median price for a one-bedroom apartment: is $3,095.

Democrats have taken another step in pushing $ 1.9 trillion in aid to President Biden, as the House Methods and Means Committee said yesterday it had approved key measures, including checks for $ 1,400.

 

Several committees are working on the bill, and part of the Ways and Means committee's draft includes provisions for: approving direct payments of $ 1,400; extend unemployment benefits and temporary federal benefits until August 29, 2021; increases weekly benefit from $ 300 to $ 400; extension of tax credits for employees and families; supports health insurance and improves access to health care; and to protect the elderly in nursing homes, the statement said.

 

House President Nancy Pelosi said in her weekly press conference yesterday that she expects the commissioning increase to end this week. Increasing the membership of the committee is a key formal step the committee ultimately takes to move the bill forward, according to the Congress website.

 

The next steps, according to Pelosi, are to send him to the Budget Committee next week to do their bidding, then to the Rules Committee, and then up, she said in her speech. Bemorepanda collected some memes.

US President-elect Joe Biden, Democrat, who takes office on January 20, has unveiled a plan to stimulate the economy amid a nearly $ 1.9 trillion pandemic, Reuters reported.

Biden proposed spending about $ 1 trillion in direct aid to households, $ 440 billion in helping small businesses hardest hit by the pandemic, and $ 415 billion in pandemic control and vaccinations.

Joe Biden believes that US residents need to be paid $ 1,400 in addition to the $ 600 previously approved in the US Congress. He also proposed increasing the amount of supplementary unemployment insurance from $ 300 to $ 400 per week. This generated a lot of memes, Bemorepanda collected them all.
