Making Americans stockholders in USA Inc. is great. Direct payments to US citizens seems more efficacious and ethical than payments to corporations who jigger with their stocks and enrich the c-level. I like seeing the funding get down and dirty in the big pool of ideas .. the people growing the food, packing food, driving trucks, programming computers, installing IT, and many more occupations. On this issue, I think fiscal responsibility is fine, but also strategic investment in something other than multinational pharma and IT is also .. something I could respect.
Budgets are meaningless, with the help of the FED it is free money for everyone, except for those paying taxes. I never thought the lunacy of universal income would take off; both parties have embraced apparently.
We are so far down the rabbit hole, argue about how big the check will be and to whom vs the responsibility of citizens and governments in a free society.
Sad to see Sen Thune with AFP, l lost all respect for them this last session with the agenda they were pushing with the ACLU
