Unity: China Joe To Offer Progressive Wish List With “Families Plan”

Now, imagine that Donald Trump had run on unity and bipartisanship, and then dumped that on day one, and continued to get less and less bipartisan as the days went on. But, people are dumb, people are sheep, and they preferred a lunatic leftist over mean tweets

Biden to propose $1.8 trillion ‘families plan’ with paid leave, child care, universal pre-K, free community college

President Joe Biden will propose a sweeping $1.8 trillion plan Wednesday for national paid family leave, universal pre-kindergarten, free community college and subsidized child care in what would be a dramatic federal expansion of the social safety net for families and children.

Biden is set to formally introduce his American Families Plan at his first address before a joint session of Congress Wednesday night. It’s the second piece of his “Build Back Better” economic agenda following the release of a $2.3 trillion infrastructure and jobs plan released earlier this month.

Billed as “generational investments in our future” to out-compete China and transform the U.S. economy, the families plan includes $1 trillion in spending over the next 10 years, according to senior administration officials who agreed to discuss the specifics on the condition of anonymity. It also has an additional $800 billion in targeted tax credits for the middle class.

The proposal to Congress would be paid for through a crackdown on taxloopholes used by high-income tax-filers. It would also nearly double the capital gains tax from a 20% rate to 39.6% for households making more than $1 million, among other changes.

Progressives (nice Fascists) would love getting people’s children early, right? Will Universal Pre-K be mandatory? What will be the standards for subsidized child care? Who pays for the national paid family leave? The Government (there are several paragraphs as to how this works in the article). Know what else will happen? Massive fraud. Free community college? Why would they go when Democrats will repay their regular college tuition. I might approve of free community college if they acquired a degree that has actual value on the market.

If he thinks he’ll be able to pay for it with tax hikes, good luck. Those making more than a $1 million will simply find ways to shelter it, and, it will mean less investment here in the U.S. Tax loopholes? How are they loopholes when Congress has written them into law? They’re features, not bugs. And they’ll just find ways to do other things.

Biden is proposing $200 billion to make free prekindergarten available to all three- and four-year-olds regardless of their families’ incomes. This would be made primarily through “partnerships” with states, but the federal government would seek to work directly with preschools in states that don’t participate.

And once the federal government starts getting involved in pre-k, essentially running it, this will simply expand more and more. Can someone point out in the Constitution where this is a duty/responsibility assigned to the federal government?

The plan takes steps to make college more affordable for students of color.

It sets aside $85 billion for Pell grants that would provide $1,400 in additional assistance to low-income college students; $62 billion for a grant program aimed at improving college completion for low-income students; and $46 billion for historically black colleges and universities. The latter includes at least two years of subsidized tuition for students enrolled in four-year HBCUs from families earning less than $125,000 a year.

So, once again, Democrats think that students of color are too dumb and poor to be able to pay for college without the helpful hand of government. Yet, no one is calling this out as racism.
