Pure insanity. Obviously it won't get any traction that's common sense. Paying a family of 5 $10,000 a month until the pandemic is over? Look at who is at the forefront of this idea the most radical lefties known to man.

The Federal Reserve will create as much money as is needed. Eventually that will cause money to be worth less, and finally worthless.

That's just nuts.....there is no reason to keep paying extra $$$ every month just because some one has kids....there is no need for the sheer amount of $$$. Kids just don't cost THAT much extra each month.

If you want to do monthly payments then ALL other programs need to end...the extra unemployment and housing assistance and what not.....since that's A LOT of double dipping....

Funny...I've managed to remain working with a paycheck my Hubby has kept a job...we paid the camper off early and the CC is getting chewed down. So in all reality with places looking for help there's no excuse..... if you have a clean license. ..fedex, ups, amazon and all sorts of delivery places are looking for workers. But it's physical labor that many believe is beneath them....

People who live on Big Brother/Sister's handouts -- and are too ignorant to understand where they came from.

It reminds me of watching Live PD before it got taken off the air. There would be these crooks the cops would catch and they'd have drugs on them they were proud to say they bought with their stimulus money.

If people can't afford multiple kids they shouldn't have them. So many women having kids just for more welfare. This is a motivator for more young kids to do the same and go out and have kids left and right to be rewarded by the government. To them, it beats getting a job. Just think of the poor kids that are more than likely not being properly cared for. Thanks Biden. Someone needs to stop this idiot. Take his danged pen away.

Biden also wants to give checks to people who just literally quit their jobs. WOW.

Who pays for all of this?


People who are trying to save their money.

If you keep your money in the bank, interest rates are practically nil. But inflation rates are a lot higher. So the money you put in now, will only be worth half as much when it's time to take it out. You just paid for a lot of the "free stuff" someone else has been getting from the govt, who printed the money.

But if you borrowed money, you're way ahead. If you borrowed enough to, say, add a new room to your house, the amount you eventually pay back is only worth half the value of what you borrowed. Again, thanks to inflation. Say a polite "Thank you" to the guy who lent you the money, because he's only getting back half the value he lent you. Sucker.
