White House considering sending gas rebate cards to Americans: report
Biden administration emphasized its willing to consider any and all solutions to ongoing inflation crisis

    By Edward Lawrence , Timothy Nerozzi FOXBusiness

The White House is reportedly floating the idea of gas rebates for U.S. residents due to record gas prices.

A White House official told FOX Business that the administration has not ruled out the distribution of gas rebate cards. The cards would hypothetically subsidize the price of gas for Americans – many of whom are struggling to make ends meet with fuel now priced at the level of a luxury good.

"The president has made clear that he is willing to explore all options and hear all ideas that would help lower gas prices for the American people," the official told FOX Business.

"No decisions have been made," the official clarified.

The national average price for regular gasoline rose 10 cents last week and hovered around a record high of $5.01 per gallon.

I wouldn't doubt it.  I have felt for awhile that Joe's mind is back in WWII.

White House officials exploring sending Americans rebates cards to offset gas costs ran into another problem — the chips shortage, which meant US couldn’t physically produce enough cards to make the plan work even if lawmakers tried to do it, per sources

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Is there a number that I can call to tell Joe where he can put his gas rebate card?

This is why inflation is here to stay.  Congress has no ability to restrain itself.  Every recession will be accompanied by $trillions in debt.

Reminds me of that "Confederate money" we bought at a restaurant in Front Royal, Va., back in the 1960s. Worthless pieces of paper.

Those crackly brown facsimiles aren't worth much.

But real Confederate money has value. For instance...

is worth a little over $330.00

And it isn’t just Democrats or the left

We even have one or two here that argue against cutting spending
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
