Leftist Frustration Mounts over Biden Pitch for $1,400 Checks: People Deserve ‘$2,000 Recurring Monthly Survival Checks’

Hannah Bleau 16 Jan 2021

Far-left members of the “Squad” are publicly shaming one aspect of President-elect Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion spending plan, which would provide Americans with $1,400 stimulus checks, calling for Congress to provide Americans with $2,000 checks and possibly have them “recurring.”

Biden on Thursday unveiled his $1.9 trillion spending plan, which is aimed to assist Americans, small businesses, and local governments in the age of the Chinese coronavirus. The last relief measure, which President Trump signed last month, provided Americans with $600 checks despite the president urging Congress to increase the amount to $2,000.

In the days following, Democrat lawmakers vowed to provide Americans with $2,000 checks, but Biden’s plan falls short in that area, providing what would be around “$320 billion in direct payments of $1,400 for most Americans,” as Breitbart News estimated.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was among the first to express disagreement.

“$2,000 means $2,000. $2,000 does not mean $1,400,” she said, as the Washington Post reported.

Other members of the far-left “Squad” have also spoken out, demanding that lawmakers provide the full amount as promised. However, Biden’s team contends that providing $1,400 does, in fact, match the promise of $2,000 checks when combined with the $600 distributed as part of the last $2.3 trillion government spending and coronavirus relief measure.

 You know these people have never had to live under a budget or make regular monthly payments in their whole lives.
 
Most probably or received damn near every dollar they have ever received from some form of government aid.

What they didn't get from government aid most likely came from theft,prostitution,armed robbery,or some other crime.

Or trust funds.

Let's see....Govt bankruptcy.  The dollar becomes worthless.  People are out of work and hungry and Bill Gates just bought up the most farmland in the U.S.

How convenient for him.

IF I had any money to bet,I would bet that the next session of Congress will show a sharp increase in crop subsidies.

Democrats have all been about money for the rich and foreigners for decades now.  Fools voted them into office just so they could continue Obama's economy destroying agendas.  Where is the surprise in all of this?  Even a fools fool could see  this coming.
Next big surprise, Biden furthers support for tear down America groups foreign and domestic.  Cuts again for our military and our military weapons, technology and treasury to our enemies.  This is what the election was really about, and the morons won.  You ain't seen nuthin yet fools.  You bought it, you own it.
You broke it, you own it.  You stepped off the cliff, enjoy the free fall, enjoy the sudden stop too.
  Trump wanted $2,000 so Biden pretended to accept that amount, of course after securing the election, Biden reveals it was all just a lie on his part.  Democrats control of money is to reward the rich for their financial support.

More proof the hard left is innumerate:  $600 + $1400 = $2000.  Biden proposes to top up the $600 already approved to make it $2000.  (And I'm similarly unsure of the math skills of our poster who claims Biden was therefore lying about supporting Trump's call for a $2000 stimulus payment.)

Odd when President Trump said TWO THOUSAND  he clearly meant TWO THOUSAND, then the Biden new math-er changes two thousand to addition math justification.  Oh yeah, BELIEVE THAT , you clueless.  Now how about the new math justifying much more money going to the ultra-rich and foreigners who paid no taxes to get the money.  The screwed tax payers that pay for the Treasury get finagled to get less and less.

Are you kidding? That economics degreed AOC would probably have a very, um, modern university educated reply to that, can't you just hear her? "DUH!, How can the government go bankrupt, I mean all they have to do is print more money".

OK, clearly was Trump was talking about giving Americans $2000 instead of the $600 the democrats wanted and tax and spend republicans helped approve. Let's not get into democrat math ourselves. Trump was never talking about $2000 in addition to the $600. As far as screwing the taxpayers? Anytime the government gifts the people their own money at loan shark terms the taxpayer loses. If you want to talk about stopping all foreign aid, which absolutey screws the taxpayer then I'm on board with that 100%

It should be funny because it's a cartoon, but it's so true that it's just sad.

This is the beginning of desolation the multitudes were warned about, yet we got Biden anyway. 
As you sew,so shall you reap.  Money for them, excuses for us.  Guns for them,not for us.  Jobs for China, none for us, half the Country shut down.  Massive spending not for us, but massive tax hikes for a jobless nation, inflation like never seen looms.  Are people really so stupid they can't see this coming ?

Once you develop foolproof election and voter fraud, you no longer need to buy votes.  The American Marxists understand this @christian   And soon the American democrat will, too.  But by then we'll all be disarmed.

Free money only makes money worthless.

Leftist never learn from history and are bent on repeating it dragging the innocent with them.

Just what we need, Eugenicist Gates in our food supply.  It's almost as if GMOs are not killing us off fast enough.
