If you want to know why so many blue collar workers are leaving the work force, this is it. For a couple with four children that makes less than $50,000 a year, it probably is more cost effective for one parent to stay home when receiving this $1200 per month, once you deduct child care and other expenses of working. Twelve dollars an hour on a 40 hour work week is less than $25,000 per year. Then subtract for taxes, etc and you will come out basically even.

But wait until tax time and they find out these Biden kiddie bucks were all borrowed against the big tax credits and refunds they expect

I do believe families should get extra help but its gotten pretty ridiculous....

we're older now....68 and 69...we are out of the work force, finally...

fixed income...
