[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You tell people 'I'll give you a million dollars' and they'll poll support for that too. Again - doesn't make it excellent fiscal policy. Especially as you're threatening some of our greatest assets and the GDP to get it.

The progressives and Squad wrote themselves into a corner, refused to compromise - they wouldn't even put in a means test of a $2,500 annual income requirement for the child giveaway credit FFS, and now you're mad their crazy plan is dead? Learn to support people who actually write and [u]pass[/u] bills next time.

P.S. - Threatening our billionaires, who will happily be taken in by China or Russia or hell even Germany, was never a smart move.

First of all, no one’s giving people a million dollars.

Second of all, [i]it’s paid for.[/i] https://www.whitehouse.gov/build-back-better/
[quote=Anonymous]Combined with savings from repealing the Trump Administration’s rebate rule, the plan is fully paid for by asking more from the very largest corporations and the wealthiest Americans. The 2017 tax cut delivered a windfall to them, and this would help reverse that—and invest in the country’s future. No one making under $400,000 will pay a penny more in taxes.[/quote]

Third of all, it’s all stuff to even out the ridiculous inequality between the billionaires and the rest of us. Affordable housing. Expanding the EITC. Expands access to college, community college and apprenticeships. Immigration reform.

Just how much money do the billionaires have? https://inequality.org/great-divide/updates-billionaire-pandemic/
[quote=Anonymous]The $5 trillion in wealth now held by 745 billionaires is two-thirds more than the $3 trillion in wealth held by the bottom 50 percent of U.S. households estimated by the Federal Reserve Board.[/quote] How many yachts and private islands and taxpayer funded rockets do these losers need to feel good about themselves? At what point can we expect them to participate in the human world again? If they want to leave the US, good. Go. Be gone. I trust you support the Global Minimum Tax? [/quote]

Oh please. Its a money dump to parents. End of story. Community college? LOL That's the first thing they cut. Immigrant reform? Again cut.

Why don't you talk about how it pays people to have kids?

3 kids is $
4-6 kids is $$
6 or more kids $$$

And no one believes its free. At all. That's why you went up again Musk with threats to tax only billionaires and he is telling you in no uncertain terms he will wreck this economy before he pays an additional dime.

Back off. We've got more important things to fight - the 5th Circuit just completely axed Biden's vaccine mandate, the supply chain is in shambles, food shortages, drop in GDP, and oh - you're already losing major elections pre-midterms. Not to mention the progressives pushed out the federal shutdown and the debt ceiling fiasco to 3 short weeks away.[/quote]
