THIS. Is why Trumpy bear was elected. You hear about that new stimulus check that Congress passed? Almost 1 trillion dollars and you get a whopping 600 bucks. That's the joe biden party for you. What they dont tell you is that they also included.

The first section is part of the federal budget and the 2nd part is in the defense bill. These aren't part of the stimulus. I know you just want to be right in a argument but just think for a second.

So wait is defending this bill really the position you're taking? Just want to make sure I understand you

Don't go off the rails now. It is separate bills that for some reason they wanted combined to pass their agendas. Both dem and pub so those items would've been in their respective bills regardless. Just focus on the stimulus part.

Either they will amend the bill to raise the direct payments to $2000 a head and pass it (not 1 person can object to it so the pressure is on pubs) or the citizens of this country will have to see what happens in the Georgia run-offs.

Foreign aid prevents wars and expands US influence. If we don’t spend money there someone else will, like China. You may be in favor of China dominating emerging markets but most rational people understand how it works.

I’m glad republicans are embracing Keynesian economics and demand side policy. I’m not surprised they are trying to do it on the cheap.

China doesn't give foreign aid, though. It sets up debt traps which gives them rights to other countries' resources when they default, which China will see to. If the US tried that, we would be smeared as imperialists. Which we are anyway.

If “gender studies” in Pakistan means educating Muslim men not to rape little boys then it’s money well spent. Save the children, right?

It costs millions to tell men not to rape boys? Or is it a payoff to get them to stop? And I guess there isn't enough money in the world to get them to stop raping girls?

It's 10 million dollars to teach feminism in a country where men are legally allowed to take four wives.... That's called a waste of money.
Maybe we should bomb and invade them instead? What could go wrong?
Maybe we don't do either, this isn't complicated.

I thought imposing our value systems on brown people is one of the main reasons why white Europeans are evil, and our civilization must be destroyed. Why would woke folk want to keep such a terrible tradition of imperial oppression alive? It's also kinda odd that the only alternative you came up with is killing them.

I’m talking about pedophile rapists, killing them would be my first option if it were up to me.

I wasn’t being serious in the first place. I’m sure our federal tax dollars get spent on even sillier crap than this.

At the current rate we're going, we'll be lucky to see any stimulus money at all. This bill will be pocket vetoed while McCarthy and Pelosi hurl blame and insults at each other. Meanwhile, the average American will continue to get screwed as they always do.
