the rich got $1.9 trillion in government handouts called tax cuts giving people $2,000 isn't a handout. It's a small way of balancing the scales

70% of the US economy is driven by consumer spending When you put money in the hands of consumers, everyone wins When they give handouts to the top, it's just to cut the rest of us out of the picture The oligarchs like to keep the labor pool desperate & barely hanging on

Taking less of people's property is the same as giving that property to other people!

We worked hard to get Dems elected and they treat the voters like we shouldbe grateful for ANY scraps. No. We hired you to help us. Fuck around and find out '22.

And this $2,000 handout is just a one shot deal ... what is that going to do for a family of four who needs to put food on the table ... pay the rent or mortgage ... pay daycare ... buy clothes ... and put gas in the car ... the answer is ... NOT MUCH!
