[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I know you were asking about inflation (which isn’t really a concern with this) but the impact would be lifting millions of men and women, especially women of color, out of poverty. That is why republicans hate it. Like I said before, they’d rather they die than have them do well for themselves through employment, and definitely rather than provide them with any public benefits. And I don’t say that hyperbolically. Just think about this past year.[/quote] Millions? Even best estimate is less than a million--I think it is 900K. Meanwhile, it will put others out of work and deeper into poverty. It will also affect teens who won't be able to gain valuable job skills. And, others who are working part time to supplement income.
