50% hate low taxes, low unemployment, low welfare payments, prosperity, high stock prices. Not enough free things for them.

The thing that always gets me is no liberal can ever explain to me where we should begin. Ok, I get it, there’s income inequality. There is. Let’s just pretend that it’s governments role to do something about that. What free thing would help most?

1)Slavery Reparations? To whom would these be paid?

2)Forgiveness of College Debt? Ok, this would make an impact but not a huge windfall because the money hasn’t been spent. It’s not coming back. So let’s say you’re paying $200 per month. That’s all you’re gaining.

3)Free College Tuition? Would be nice but who would it extend to? And who’s paying for it? State schools only?

4)Free Healthcare? Too many “ifs” to list here.

5) Freedom Dividend

6) $15 mandatory minimum wage?

7) Green New Deal/ Climate Change Expenses

Even the most liberal of liberals should be able to understand that we can’t pay for ALL of this. So where do we start? No one, not a single politician has ever put forth a plan.
