63% of Americans want stimulus checks for inflation.

That means that 63% of Americans are MORONS. The inflation is from the government stimulus checks.

The fix is that you collect the money from the 63% who want the checks, subtract out the government costs, and then redistribute the stimulus back to their pockets. Maybe then they will get it.

100 surveyed. 95 of them are hard core Socialists. Coming from NewsLeak, you would think that number would be almost 100 percent!

They are already planting this seed as a test for the Republican lead Congress. From Day 1 in January the Dem side will be pushing an inflation relief bill, knowing good and well that it would just increase inflation. The only point is to put constant pressure on the Republicans to look mean and greedy. The media, of course, will be help with daily Congressional approval polls (how long has it been since they even mentioned one...the Dem congress with like 20% approval)?

Why would you put any faith in a poll that doesn’t provide any info on how it was conducted...

because they say it was the most secure election of all time...

Oh yeah, it’s going to be ugly, in fact, it’s my theory that this is exactly what the Democrats wanted. So that now they can blame Republicans for all of the problems. Kinda hard to do that when you control both Congress and the White House.

This is the same majority that would favor making another hole in the Titanic to let the water out.

Alternate headline: Majority of Americans cannot understand how their bank accounts are overdrawn when they still have checks in their checkbooks.
