Well, using the salaries and bene’s associated with the go’vt employees associated with “administration” of all the programs could go a long way to covering the cash flow.

Its called getting an allowance from your grandchildren.

No government has money.
They have to steal it from someone first in order to do whatever kind of stupid B.S. they want to do with it.
To: Sir Napsalot
and once every single American gets a check from the government, you can say goodbye to any Republican votes until the whole Ponzi scheme collapses.
How many Americans would work if they get free money?
If Americans stopped working, where would the taxes come from to pay out these checks?

automatically have the government give every adult a basic income. Its basically what the USA does already.

Better yet, just declare the leaves on the trees to be legal tender. That way there would be plenty for everybody, and think of all the money it would save on printing costs.

Question 1: uh, where does the money come from?
Question 2: where will the money come from once the people that were paying the checks get on the same program?
Waiting for your answer, 0...

My extended family is begging for food after Typhoon Haiyan and these WORTHLESS scumbag leftists demand more or my money. I will flee the country before I give them anymore. To hell with them!

The average Dem voter is so dumb that they would eat all the leaves. The tummy makes the best piggy bank....

—anybody around here old enough to remember Nixon’s “negative income tax”??
—it was aimed at getting rid of “social workers”—a laudable ambition , IMHO—

I doubt it would stop the “community organizers” for too long, they’ll find another racket to exploit
