A few thoughts on this:
1.) There's no reason to have an arbitrary $1 t limit.
2.) To the extent that you want the bill to be smaller (regardless of the validity of such claims) there's still a good case for some sort of universal payment, even if less than $1200.

One thing we know about the implementation of CARES is that it's spotty and time lagged. Lots of people who should have gotten FPUC didn't, or got it months later than they should of.
That's true of checks too! But we have the mechanisms in place to send that money out, and can learn from any problems in the CARES implementation.
I'd prefer doing something like $1200 checks again (though let's fill in the holes like adult dependents).
But if we don't do that we should still be looking into something like the $300 per person checks that the Bush admin. did in 2008.
