As far as the original post goes sure all those other countries may benefit, but last time I checked the people who actually work at the store I would purchase those items at are US citizens. I'm sure they would like to have the extra customers, because I know the retail store my wife works at has been cutting hours. Not to mention that one of the largest, if not THE largest, employer in my town is the Walmart distribution center, so most of my town relies on people buying all of those foreign made products so they can load trucks of more foreign made products.
The last stimulus check we got last year, went to install, breaker panel in my house to replace the old fuse box.
Also one of the industries to see a boost in sales due to the last round of stimulus checks was the porn industry.
