    Because this is just more socialism. Trump is very socialist, he just had no self-awareness about what it means when he does something like ruining the soybean market for farmers and then sending the farmers whose business he killed billions of dollars. He's actually a stupid socialist, Mamdani would at least find a way to use the soybeans.

    it sounds like you're the one living in your parent's basement cheering for a 2k check while those of us with true fiscal responsibilities would much rather have a healthier economy as that is the true economic indicator of a nation's fiscal health.

    but jew do jew.
    I hope you don't think you're actually fooling anyone. It's obvious you live with your mommy. I'm not even saying that to troll. It's obvious from the way you act and the things you say. There's also a 0% chance that you're a high earner. I know a lot of high earners and none of them are socialists.

    If you really had fiscal responsibility then you wouldn't be claiming to wipe your ass with $2,000 dollars. I know you're not married with any kids so you obviously don't own some 3 bedroom home. Even if by some miraculous chance I'm wrong and you do have a rent payment, it's probably a 1 bedroom at best so maybe you're paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.5k-$2.5k a month depending on how close to the city you live. I'm completely ruling out you owning your home.

    So that would mean $2k is a month's rent for you. That's not including utilities, cell phone, internet and wifi, streaming, groceries, car payment, car insurance, health insurance, gas, etc. Your monthly nut would probably be somewhere around $3-$4k and that's just the bare essentials. That doesn't include your social life, your leisure activities, your hobbies, your weed addiction and your onlyfans addiction. That's probably another $2k each month as well that you're spending. After all you claim to be such a high roller. Maybe you're spending more.

    So that means it would cost around $6k a month AT LEAST just to exist as highwhey, but that doesn't even cover your savings. How much are you actually able to save and tuck away? Even if you were earning $10k a month that's still just around $7.5k net after taxes, which means at best you could tuck away $1.5k a month. Not exactly rolling in it if you ask me.

    So even in this totally made up fictional scenario where you live by yourself and support yourself, there's just no way you're wiping your ass with a tax free $2,000 check. Not unless you want us to believe you're earning a minimum of $15k a month. And we all know that's out of the question.

    If you make more than $150k why does your YTD say $53,845?

    "i cut a deal. i got the better of everybody and now america is winning".

    but are we?

    it doesn't take much to rile up trump's base, much less get them to a gullible enough state to blindly rah-rah a tweet such as that.

    $2k checks.

    just another day in the trump reality show.

    imagine how much more economic opportunity there could be if raw materials sourced from out of country were not taxed to hell.

    This would be extremely inflationary, I am shocked that Trump or the entire Gov in general didn't learn that from the covid checks. Seriously, how is this even in consideration? Took forever to get out of our last inflation battle.

    You want high grocery prices? Just dump billions of dollars on the population. All of which will just trickle to the top and turn our billionaires into trillionaires.
