About 36 million families can expect to receive some extra cash beginning on July 15, when the IRS will start distributing the expanded child tax credit. Eligible families will receive up to $1,800 in cash per child through December, part of the American Rescue Plan that President Biden signed into law in March. The $1.9 trillion relief bill boosted the child tax credit – previously worth up to $2,000 for every child under the age of 17 – to up to $3,600 for every child under the age of 6 and $3,000 for every child ages 6 to 17.

How in the world is the government going to pay for this? Specifically, how? Are they going to ruin the rest of us to pay for this? God help us....

I demand it be changed to “every child under 40.” I want my loot back. They’ve stolen it from me for 55 years.
