Up to three-quarters of the $800 billion in disbursed PPP funds flowed to business owners instead of workers, study finds

The benefits of the landmark small-business relief program designed at the height of the pandemic mostly went to business owners rather than workers, a study from leading economists finds.

The far-reaching PPP ended up sending loans to approximately 93% of small businesses, within just two months. The end result, the authors estimate, is that the program preserved up to 3 million “job years” of employment at a cost of between $170,000 to $257,000 per job year retained. Another finding was that so-called second-draw loans in 2021 — that is, companies going back for more funding a year later — had no impact on employment. The authors said that was “perhaps because they were issued too late to be relevant, after the economic recovery was well underway. If this interpretation is correct, it affirms that Congress was wise to prioritize speed over precision in dispatching the initial two tranches of PPP loans.

Yup - lots of nice vacation houses being purchased in the last year or 2. Not many workers received a bonus or even a holiday turkey…their jobs were never at risk either.

Who is benefitting from Biden's Open Borders and Energy Policies? Certainly not the citizens of the USA.

If the ten wealthiest Americans donated fifteen percent of their wealth, 10 million people could get a check for $10.5k. That's over 3 percent of the US population. From ten people.

It was a bonus for business owners

Shocker

SO... on levels : The Rich and Upper Middle Class got wealthier as the lower classes stayed poor? Would have perhaps been better to take that $800Billion and give like $2400 to each American... doing the math and following the money...

Not surprised AT all. Naming the businesses and noting who then supported TFG is interesting as well.

No sh!t Sherlock…bailouts are dreadfully inefficient.
