Savings Rebate Likely
Timothy Birdnow
This may be politically popular but I don't think it's a good idea; we need to pay the debt down first.
Proposed DOGE Divident Could Become Law
Of course this could help in boosting the economy at this critical juncture, which may be more important. The politics of this are not to be dismissed; Trump needs to keep the political good will on his side and only relief from high prices will do that. He was elected to fix the economy as much as to close the border; he's done the latter but now needs to accomplish the former and that's going to be a much tougher nut to crack given the Biden spending is just starting to kick in and the strangulation of the economy has yet to come fully.
So perhaps this is the right approach. We've just got to stop blowing money and Congress needs to grow a spine.

No, the money has to go to "tax cuts for the rich." Funny thing. I have searched at length, and have seen nothing from Republicans on tax cuts. They seem to be planning something, but no details have been forthcoming yet. The only details about tax cuts are from Democrats with their "tax cuts for the rich," which they have apparently pulled out of their backsides.

That's a good point Bill. Right now we are in a fight just to renew the tax cuts BIDEN left in place from the first Trump presidency. Why aren't they talking about new cuts?
