At long last, a new coronavirus stimulus package is finally set to be passed by the US Congress.
The last one expired at the end of July.
Business Insider reports the long-awaited package will reportedly contain $600 stimulus checks and an extra $300 in weekly unemployment benefits.
While the House has passed multiple bills that would have offered more to Americans, the GOP-controlled Senate has balked until now.
However, the deal hasn't been well-received in the Twitterverse, and has produced references to class warfare and revolution.
'Let them eat cake' trended on Twitter in response to the apparently inadequate $600 stimulus check.
It's a famous utterance attributed to Marie Antoinette, representing the out-of-touch monied, ruling class overthrown in the French Revolution.
