Democrats are proposing to offer drivers cash and rebate schemes to counter President Biden’s record-high gas prices.

Reps. Mike Thompson (D-CA), John Larson (D-CT), and Lauren Underwood (D-IL) last week proposed the Gas Rebate Act of 2022 where American drivers would receive a $100 energy rebate per month for the remainder of 2022.

Government makes the problem and the solution they come up with is worse.

[frogjerk]

This will only increase inflation

[frogjerk]

Why only $100 - wouldn’t $500 be better? Then everyone would be about covered, right?

[brownsfan]

It’s a tried and true plan that works for Dems. Because the public is just that stupid.

[A Navy Vet]

Mo money, mo money, mo money.

[eyeamok]

We will print and borrow our way to prosperity? Did I get that right?

[blueunicorn6]

How about government approves pipelines and fracking and quit trying to hand out our money to buy votes.

[Chode]

the simple solution would be to drop the taxes, but the RATS can’t skim the rebate that way...

[dsrtsage]

Wow, first they remove mask mandates, then they give people free money...I dunno I guess I am a skeptical old man, but I can’t quite put my finger on what the angle might be

...regardless of whether you actually have a car...

The liberal mind is a dark place — an irrational, predatory, enslaving, and uncivilizing influence. It has become its own refuge, its own closed system of thought and behavior, its own electric carnival of delusions

Meh. I’m very disappointed by that title. Democrats are usually quite good at making up noble names for bad ideas. But the “Gas Rebate Act of 2022” name is bland.

I would have expected something like the “Help Working People Who Are Impoverished By Putin Act of 2022”.

If the U.S. Treasury runs out of paper and ink, we are all doomed.

May I suggest that anyone voted in to Congressional office have at least a crash course in economics and the U.S. Constitution?

Maybe even serve in the military, at least go through BCT?

stupid, borrow and tax more to pay for an inflated price instead of pumping more energy to reduce the price. I swear you can’t make this stupid sh*t up.

Government Creates a problem for government to come in and “resolve” the problem while creating another problem through the “resolution”...

Can it be used for Lap Dances? Asking for a friend.

[EQAndyBuzz]

How about one year of not collecting any payroll taxes? That should make up for the higher gas and food prices.

[Wasichu]

Extra money if you have kids?....

[Lee25]

Kickbacks for those democrats too

[Deo volente]

Democrats’ solution to every problem: print more money.

Heck, why don’t they just give everyone a million dollars and be done with it?
