Mark Cuban wants the US government to give every household a $1,000 stimulus check every 2 weeks that expires if it's not spent within 10 days

Mark Cuban, billionaire investor and owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, tweeted over the weekend that the US government should give its 128 million households $1,000 dollar stimulus checks every two weeks for the next two months as part of a spending program to boost demand in the US economy in order to keep businesses alive.

It's time to face the fact that PPP didn't work. Great plan, difficult execution. No one's fault. The only thing that will save businesses is consumer demand. No amount of loans to businesses will save them or jobs if their customers aren't buying.

When it comes to returning to work, Cuban said workers should listen to epidemiologists and experts about the coronavirus — not billionaires.
