They can't because most people are locked down so they cannot get a second job.
My point is why should people who have savings have to spend them when others who don't have saving get free money. Why is the savers who lose out when they are in the same boat as everyone else ?
EDIT : What is becoming clearer is that our welfare system is junk and doesn't work for anyone.
