Some a$$holes think that is a good idea. The government does not create jobs. It can issue a lot of money, which deflates its purchasing power. Initially, it looks good, since the public is too stupid to understand that the rising cost of goods is due to the government issuing money from nothing.
The idiots at royters are stupid as a rock.
$1,000 from every man woman and child to play for this redistribution
If Sanders gets elected he’s not going to do anything. All he’s going to care about is lining his pockets like all leftists. He might throw the proletariat a single bone like Obama did with Obamacare, but like Obamacare it’s going to be completely useless. The indoctrinated need to wake up to the fact that Trump is getting things done for the people, and liberals never EVER do anything for the people, ever. All they do is make things worse and line their pockets.
Bernie is thinking small. He should start with a $300 TRILLION jobs program in the first year.
I don't see a thing wrong with this plan.
It won’t be 3.6% for long if Bernie gets elected with a DemocRat Congress and starts greatly raising taxes to pay for the “free” goodies.
Since Al Gore's Global Warming
Lemme guess, we all have to walk to the fields to work in agriculture, everyone with glasses gets shot, and we call it year one?
So - MMT relies on the fact that everyone is too scared of the repercussions of realizing that the money eventually isn’t worth the ink that was used to print it?
That is pretty scary on its own.
Oh he77 no! We don’t need no stinking jobs program, damn fool! The jobs problem has been taken care of. Figure out how to straighten out the dysfunctional Democratic states and start with California!
Well I suppose there’s no problem spending a few hundred trillion dollars can’t solve...
Not actually true outside the major metropolitan area’s.
And too many of those “Jobs” are crap wage part-time “Service” jobs.
Some of us are not suited to paring toe-nails, massaging the obese, UBER driving, or flipping burgers.
In the rural area’s jobs that can support a decent life are still hard to find.
Too many are taken by illegals who depress wages across the area, others are really only suitable for the young and strong.
Add in the current trend of only taking applications on-line, a great way to block those over fifty or so without active age discrimination.
None of which makes Sanders any less of an idiot*.
*My apology for any offense to idiots this observation may cause.
Words never uttered by a liberal during the obummer years. Now they're screaming it from the rooftops...
That is GOP propaganda. There are 60 million working age people not working.
Entice a few industries back from overseas = Very high import tariff, which would be a great thing!
300 Billion to hire more parasites. Just what we need.
You can give a lazy hood rat a job, but you can never make him work!
We’re overemployed.
Fast food counter service often sucks. Anyone can get a job these days if they want one, and another one right away afterwards.
I notice it’s been a while since we’ve read of cops being denied service.
Have a feeling Big Media’s under pressure to stop reporting those incidents.
What about people who don't want to work? Will they get more than what the Sandersnistas want to pay for federal busywork?
