Well, they're not Marxists in any way, but they're Democrats, which is far worse.

Right? At least the Marxists and the Nazis tried to make their countries strong

The more they can move formerly self-supporting voters onto the public dole, the better they like it.

I know someone who quit her part-time job last summer, when she started to get the monthly child support payments from the government. She was flush with cash for months, and bought all sorts of little luxuries.

She just told me last week that her payments had stopped, money was now tight, and she got her old part-time job back.

Expect to see more of the same as capable adults who has quit part-time jobs because they were getting enhanced welfare start to realize they need to earn money again.

That’s not the same thing, and you leftists know it. You worked and contributed (I both halves for decades) your own earnings into a forced retirement savings plan - and if you were a decent investor, you would have ended up better off if you could have invested on your own.

The refundable “tax credits” to people who pay no taxes is a pure cash handout for which they did nothing, other than be irresponsible and have babies they can‘t afford to support.

I am sorry you hate the way Western societies exist, centuries of evidence is available to show how societies have valued those that have children to help the nation.
