Snippets from news articles on what the Democrat candidates for 2020 President will give you for voting for them.

This is a great deal! We need not work anymore. We will have all our money Re forwarded to the Feds to pay for these FREE programs. Who needs money when the government will provide all. Lenin would be proud!

Here is the list of FREEBIES THE Democrats will give us all ( Republicans, Independents, etc. may I assume no one is excluded from the freebies based upon party affiliation?) Just vote for one of the 23 big spenders!

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has pledged to make community colleges and four-year public universities free for families earning less than $125,000 per year.


Joe Biden wants to give free health care to illegal aliens but they already receive free health care in the United States to the tune of $18.5 billion per year, according to a report published in Forbes last year.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has pledged
free child care for all Americans. According to the Center for American Progress, child care for American infants costs on average nearly $15,000 per year. The financial services firm Moody’s pegs the cost of Warren’s program at $1.7 billion over 10 years.

Warren would take Sanders' plan a step further. In addition to free public college, she would give each of the 42 million Americans currently paying off their student loans up to $50,000. Warren herself estimates that plan would cost an additional $1.25 trillion over 10 years.

Warren promised to help pay off Americans’ mortgages with “a substantial grant they can put towards a down payment on a home anywhere in the country,” as Warren explains on her campaign website.

Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., have all co-sponsored the “Debt-Free College Act,” estimated to cost $95.4 billion per year.

For those recent grads “unable or unwilling to work,” a universal basic income would replenish their bank accounts each month. Most 2020 Democrats have endorsed this income entitlement through the Green New Deal, estimated to cost $93 trillion over 10 years.


Reparations for the great-great-great-great grandchildren of black slaves. So far that plan has earned the endorsements of candidates Booker, Gillibrand, and Harris, as well as South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former HUD Secretary Julian Castro, former Rep. John Delaney, D-Md., former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, and Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii.


Every single Democratic presidential candidate has endorsed a national medical entitlement tending toward single-payer, socialized medicine with estimates that such a program would cost $3.3 trillion per year, coincidentally the entire sum that the federal government collected through taxes in 2017.

So, do the Math. The Feds collect $3.3 TRILLION A YEAR IN TAXES just enough for national medical entitlement.

Where will the additional money come to pay for all the other FREE gifts?


Sell the Armed Forces, their equipment and and cash in reserves? Sell NASA? Sell the National Parks? End Pensions, Social Security, SDI etc.?

Sell everything!?


New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio opened his announcement by declaring, “There’s plenty of money in this country. It’s just in the wrong hands”.


Comrade Democrats will do it all by taking all your money away.

Don't forget to vote to get your free stuff!

At this point I would prefer a libertarian government to tear the current entitlement government to shreds.

“Free stuff” really means taxing the crap from the middle class tax (it always has been). Don’t be so naive to believe Democrats can all of a sudden take more money away from the rich to pay for socialist programs. You’d be an absolute fool to believe this. I can’t believe Democrats would have the audacity to drivel this nonsense, then again, people are believing them and cheering them on, not knowing no matter how much we take away from the middle class and the rich, we will still be in massive debt, because our government is reckless with other people’s money.

You are lost, and will be disappointed again in 2020.
