I don't necessarily disagree with Smerconish. $5k checks to every American when we're in massive debt is stupid.
Would anyone do this in their personal finances? You owe the bank $100k, you cut your annual spending by $10k and instead of sending all $10k to pay your personal debt down you keep $2k of it to blow on a new tv and some shoes?
I see your point, but $5000 to each US taxpayer is a total of $7.9 billion.
It’s a drop in the bucket in that regard when the debt is over $36 trillion and rising.
Smerconish was one of those saying USAID is “only” $40 billion annually just a few weeks ago. You’re coming from an objective place, the CNN propagandist is not.
It literally is wasteful spending being proposed by the body that's supposed to be targeting government waste. There is zero justification for this other than to try and smooth shit over with people who are pissed off right now.
I’m pissed off that my wife and I owe thousands more in taxes by April 15th which apparently funds the trafficking of illegal aliens via NGO along with funding propaganda news organizations who hate me.
Fuck it. I was against it, but now I’m for it since you just reminded me how stupid I am to continue to fund this corruption.
It’s my money. I earned it and I pay for the salaries and retirements of the crybabies on TV who are fearful of losing their cushy federal jobs.
Sometimes people need to be rewarded for voting the right way. This isn't paying down your mortgage. Your paying down the grift that voters allowed to accumulate because they were told it was going for good things and didn't really matter. So, only about 50% of the voters voted the right way in 2024 (allegedly). Give them a reward along with the sheep on the left who might realize that cutting government fraud and waste has a direct benefit to them. Oregon rebates over collected tax revenue back to the taxpayers. Makes deportation a lot more palatable if you think your getting 20% of the cost savings.
You could have made this same argument before any DOGE stuff started up. This is a basic anti-tax statement from any year in the history of this country.
Would you say this if it was a Democrat handing out your tax dollars to their voters who "voted the right way"? One could argue that Dems have been doing this for a century with welfare programs that most here criticize. Pretty dangerous game you want to play here.
Google AI gave me that number. Regardless, it’s an amount so “small” to Democrats, by their own words on USAID’s $40 billion, that any Democrat’s opinion on the sensibility of a payment like this should be ignored.
There are valid reasons to not support this without it being political.
@BleachedAnusDawg is making one of those reasons and I agreed with him fully a few days ago.
So, we let the dems (and RINOs) play a winning dangerous game for a century and have $36 trillion in debt. Their right way was vote for us and we will give you fraud and waste in government, lots of payoffs to our supporters and $36 trillion in debt. Then there is this new right way. But there is really only one right way and that is to get rid of the fraud and waste and payoffs and give the electorate a direct interest in the right way. That is hardly a dangerous game. The dems made two very stupid mistakes. First they opened the border and then got pounded on the crime and historically dem voters got to see that illegal aliens and their dem NGOs were now in the front row on grift. Second was the insistence that men make the best women. Again horrible visuals and a visceral reaction to the trans insanity. If Trump takes these off the table does he still get near 50% of the vote?
Rather than a cash dividend, it might also be interesting to consider putting those savings into a sovereign wealth fund like structure, whereby all US taxpayers are members of the fund.
Haven't thought that all the way through but a couple trillion available for investing in private enterprise technology or minerals or whatever could ultimately grow into a decent sum, perhaps as a segue to weaning off the social security system.
Obviously, you wouldn't want bureaucrats running that fund and putting their hands in the cookie jar.
Leftards figure out that if we just spend more money the kids will get educated. I mean why not give this unexpected and totally unique experiment a try. Imagine teaching kids to read, write and do some basic arithmetic. Drag queen hour with flashcards for example.
If there were only a real world economic laboratory and this thing called history. The miracle of socialism, government regulation and open migration from the world's shit holes and voila. BidenBros voted for more Euro green socialism and open borders in 2024 for reasons …
It's actually 375 billion if if it is just taxpayers that pay.... if it's all with child credit etc and it will be thats way higher... if it is every person... we are over a trillion.

Just to be accurate, $7.9 billion divided by $5000 per taxpayer is only 1,580,000 taxpayers.
$5000 per taxpayer is probably closer to 100,000,000 taxpayers which is a total of $500 billion.
Excel.
