Commander-in-Chief Joe Biden has ordered a money bomb campaign.

Ten B-52s fully loaded with $100 bills will carpet bomb urban areas of alleged social disadvantage.

“The democrats want their Slaves back”

Nobody wanted their slaves back after sharecropping was introduced.

“economic security for all workers”

I’d sort of like some assurance that my American dollars will still buy stuff in 2023.

“make permanent enhanced direct payments for child EIC”

There are no special federal programs for BMW lease payments, car insurance, cable TV and European vacations.

If you expect people to vote every damn election, you gotta provide some incentives.

Whatever it takes for commies/democrats to bankrupt the county, sow
dissent, undermine businesses ... that’s what they’ll be for...

In that case these “elites” will be in the work camps with the rest of us.

Sign in McDonalds Sorry your order will take longer than usual. No one wants to work.

When commies take over they'll put people in prison who won't work... that's what happened in Cuba. That's what will happen here. All that 'caring' is only to hood-wink the gullible.

“How about you?”

About three weeks per year in four-star hotels in top locales would do for now.

Exactly, all they are doing is breaking the system, so they can apply the “fix”.

I am always amazed by the vehicles the “poor” show up in when they come to collect “free food boxes” given out by local charities in Upstate South Carolina. Beamers and Caddys galore.

I have a nephew who was a computer draftsman. He is now on unemployment and finds it more attractive.

A Fire Brother is doing renovations to 14 hair salons, he needs painters, $20 an hour, no takers at all. Do NOT allow this.

The Republicans could counter the unemployment extension with a proposal to provide government grants to small businesses to buy robots instead of payroll on useless carbon-based life forms. As long as the robots are not White, of course.
