Pennsylvania Democrat Gov. Tom Wolf is pushing state legislators to pass a bill that would send checks up to $2,000 to households with income under $80,000.

With inflation running wild Wolf wants to pump more capital into the system. To most of us this is crazy, but to a Marxist like Wolf (who is a long time lieutenant of Obama) it makes perfect sense. It's a two-fer: It helps to put our economy deeper into a ditch, and it gets people more dependent on the government. He's taking his lead from O'Biden's actions at the federal level.

We should have strung up and quartered these types long ago.

How much will it take to see that they are only hell-bent on destroying the US?

[Shady]

Tom Wolf is an idiot.

[NWFree]

Whose your sugar daddy now? 🤪

[dsrtsage]

Hopefully that windfall gets taxed

[OHPatriot]

Tommy the Commie. Buying votes a bit early isn’t he?

[dforest]

Buy offs like this can’t help people with long term problems. All it does is make matters worse.

[Baldwin]

How many dem votes will that buy? Got to keep the Governors mansion in the dim’s hands.

[EvilCapitalist]

For the Rat party maybe, but not for himself. He’s term limited, and can’t run for governor of Pennsylvania anymore.

[Da Coyote]

DemocRATz gotz to buy dem votes.

[frogjerk]

Wolf can’t cause inflation. He has no printing press. But he sure can cause fiscal havoc for the state.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Yes, living on $80,000 is such an impoverished life. It is especially so when carrying the latest cell phone plans, TV subscriptions, game consoles, SUV car payments, carryout food, and Caribbean cruises. That extra $2000 in free money will hardly make a dent.

Welfare payments to buy votes worked for Roman politicians. The free food (“corn” rations, meaning grain like bread wheat) became a property right for the recipients, who even put these welfare benefits in their wills as assets to be distributed upon their deaths.
In USA, we haven’t formalized the bequeathing of welfare benefits “entitlements” but as a practical matter, they continue inter- generationally anyway.

Well, I don’t know when I’ve read so many who objected to so little.

I would imagine people like me who need some stay alive money (that means no taxes on amount given) to eat decently while some big bills are paid back would be eternally grateful. I don’t see why that would make it impossible to send a “thank you” for such a gift. If it demands a pay back, I can’t do that.

It’s Covid money. If the people don’t get it who will? Bureaucrats?

[End Times Sentinel]

Fine.
If the democrats insist in running the entire economy into a ditch, both of my over 18 kids can be their own households.
