  1. Low wage workers do not have an extra $4,700 nor do many disabled or elderly and retired social security recipients.

  2. Glad we’re doing this to give the billionaires a tax break 🙄

  3. $4,700 / 12 = $391.67

    So you get a brand new car payment, minus the fucking car.

  4. MAGA-ists don’t care and are hoping for their “Jubilee”. They feel that they have been screwed over, so the best thing is to burn everything to the ground and start again. Not a bad strategy if you are up to your neck in debt and have little or no retirement savings.

  5. Good thing maga dumbasses are winning. That’s all that matters to them. The country is collapsing and our COL is going to keep going up, but that doesn’t matter because the libs got “owned”.

  6. It’s going to be soooo much worse because of the cascade of issues they will create.

    We really are at the Shrek moment of “Many of you will die but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.”

  7. Haha! I make 1100 a month disability and it isn’t enough.

  8. In separate news Yale’s government grants were just cut by DOGE.

  9. I don’t know about you but that’s more than my recent raise.

  10. This will give great incentive for consumers to spend more…/s

  11. Honestly that doesn’t seem like as large an amount as I would have expected. It has to be ignoring some sort of expenses or be an average across a giant set of numbers.

  12. Yeah but like 3 trans girls can’t play high school volleyball anymore so it was totally worth it. /s

  13. In unrelated news, Yale is a “very bad university, very bad, sad, bad. I am a genius, and I went to Yale and it was very bad.”

  14. It will be interesting to see where we are in 6 months.

  15. I’m fine with that. Anything to crush the ccp into the ground.

  16. China has been aggressive and duplicitous for years, and now they are saying they will continue pumping deadly fentanyl into the U.S., which has killed so many. Their response: ‘that’s your problem.’ Screw China, whatever the price.

    We helped them so much over the past half-century, and they only take advantage of us. Good Riddance, China, you’re welcome!

  17. Rip off the band aid they said, Biden’s economy was so terrible.
