Locked. No further comments permitted.What are you going to do with that $1000 monthly Trump check?

I think Romney came up with this idea last week but Trump is now trying to push it through, $1000 per month stimulus check to every adult citizen and pushing out income tax payments for 90 days. May have some of that wrong, but that's the basic idea.

What should I do with my Cheeto money since I can't go to Vegas or the Bar? Lookin at you ladies...

Last time the federal government “gave” the citizens “free” money, they took it all back on the next year’s taxes. All they’re doing is giving you your tax refund early and calling it a gift. West Wing made an episode about it. Instead of spending it, most people used it to pay down credit card debt which defeated the purpose of putting the money out there.

Ain’t nothing free in life.

Regardless of the coronavirus crisis if Trump makes it look like he's giving every adult American that makes under $75,000 $1000 cash its going to help him in the election.

I'll applaud Trump for being bold enough to take that step, but now I'll laugh at every conservative that once said "B-b-but how are we going to pay for it?" and still support Trump.

"And you cock suckers tell yourself that the 18 billion in "farm aide" is a social program as well?"

I don't suck cock (not saying it's a bad thing for those of you who do) but as a Libertarian, I've been appalled for a very long time at the preferential treatment a very few farmers get for a small number of crops. It's bullshit!!!

What it is is political, an attempt to buy votes in a few farm states and it should have been killed 50 years ago. Every president has done this bullshit, fuckers!

"Agricultural Subsidies. The federal government spends more than $20 billion a year on subsidies for farm businesses. About 39 percent of the nation's 2.1 million farms receive subsidies, with the lion's share of the handouts going to the largest producers of corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, and rice."

Probably about as many as the "Keep your dirty socialist hands off my Medicare and Social Security" people.

WTF is up with people who think just because a government pays for something, that means it's "socialism"?

Enough already, read the definition, see the examples, understand it and use the term correctly or STFU......please.

Be very clear that free market capitalism (FMC) is what's created the wealth and technology that allows you idiots to NOT be subsistence living in a mud hovel with no healthcare like most third world countries ruled by despots, tin pot dictators, or socialists. Scandinavia is NOT socialist and there is no other successful example to speak of. If you like a government funded program, then fine, advocate for it but don't think for a moment that this country will ever be socialist as defined.

FMC is not perfect and requires a government to provide a framework of rules to abide by because there are always asshole bad actors, like some of you, that fuck up. FMC is what allows the "invisible hand" of millions of free individuals to make the billions of decisions made every day with our time and money and abilities.

The unique and sometimes messy American experiment is lost on half of you dumb fucks and I know that practically none of you have ever taken even one econ class, yet fancy yourselves experts in political economies.

Please save the world and catch the Covid.
