I'd really like to read more about how tax payers are paying $18,000 each but all I can find as a source is some twitter comment and a reddit thread where the claim is disputed. Do you have something more substantial I could read? At first glance it seems extremely exaggerated so I'd like to get my head around it.
I think this is simply dividing the cost of relief packages by the number of taxpayers. It’s oversimplification of government budgeting to the point that it doesn’t mean much of anything other than to give a sense of scale.
