“We’re gonna be issuing dividends later on, somewhere prior to — the middle of next year, a little bit later than that,” he said, noting it would include “Thousands of dollars, for individuals of moderate income.”
[Scott] Bessent also floated a rough income limit of $100,000 that would disqualify higher income families from receiving the dividend.

How dumb are some of you? It will be marginally based with brackets above 100,000.
Nothing but a wealth transfer. Trump is wildly wrong on this one, no better than the liberals on this issue.
Once again punishing the providers to appease the takers.
They came at a perfect time. and I had my cataracts taken care of.
Like with the covid relief? Of which my wife and I got exactly 0.
Wealth transfer pure and simple
A lot of TDS on this thread.
So you think the payout will be incrementally reduced as you go above 100k?
TRS trolls, possibly paid trolls, are all over Free Republic. The quality of posters here is at an all time low.
TDS trolls infect FR.
“If you pay a lot of taxes? You get nothing.”
*************
Penalizing productive people who work hard and sacrifice to save. Situation normal.
It’s all just different forms of wealth transfer now.
Sad as it is to say it? If you worked hard, worked smart, and made you way in the world? Nobody is looking out for you.
*BOTH* sides are now just looking out *for your wallet*.
Oh, I don’t usually dismiss ‘found money’ but FR is a very worthy cause to support when that money goes against my core beliefs as to how our Nation should be managed. :)
I’ve waiting my entire LIFETIME to have a Businessman at the helm and while I will strive to MAGA until my last breath, I’m not liking this scheme. :(
Great... For me and my wife’s hard work and dedication to our careers, sacrifices of time lost with family, weekends spent working and making production quotas and deadlines, striving to continually better ourselves and eventually reach middle, middle class, we are rewarded with watching everyone else get a $2000 dividend check while we just have to smile and take it...
What’s the point again?
I’m sick and damned tired of being punished for having the audacity to try to improve myself...
Yup.
I suppose if I wanted to be a cynic, I might at least say that the GOP used to at least pay lip service towards the idea.
We don’t even get that, anymore.
I’d say that we now get two different flavors of leftism, but even that’s not true. It’s the same flavor in two different colors.
I use the DW to hold the dishes as they dry from hand washing. About every month I will run a load to make sure the moisture is dried and it is cleaned. If I still had kids around though, it would be worn out.
I like how it was first announced as everybody gets $2000. Then it was everyone except the very high income.
Then it was everyone except high income.
Now it’s anyone making under $100k.
I noticed we posted at about the same time. :) But honestly reading post after post of nothing but b-tch-ng gets old.
Its hard not to be a cynic. I laugh whenever I see people refer to the GOP as “our side”.
The reward for excelling is now transferring your earned gains to those who haven’t.
Makes me sad - and mad - but this is where we are at: keep your hands on both pockets because both sides just want to put their hands into the pockets.
You’re an idiot. Tariffs that were collected didn’t cost you a penny if you didn’t buy anything that was imported or the middlemen ate the tariff. A lot of you TDS buffoons do not understand how tariffs work. The rebate is gravy.
