I’m going somewhere with Jay’s wealth redistribution plan
U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller has proposed legislation that would provide low-income families with a monthly stipend of $100 to $165 to offset soaring gasoline costs.
According to the West Virginia Democrat’s plan, recipients would have to show that they drive 30 miles a day, or 150 miles a week, for work, education or health care. Recipients also would have to fall between 110 percent to 150 percent of the federal poverty level. In West Virginia, that means a family of four could receive the gasoline stipend only if the household income was less than $26,845. For an individual, the cutoff point would be $13,273.
First, if someone or a family makes that little, how do they afford a car?
Second, the Democrats have been whining non-stop about poor people being disenfranchised because they cannot afford an ID, regarding the recent SCOTUS decision. How are these poor people driving a car unless they have a drivers license? If they can afford a car, they can afford an ID to prove who the hell they are when they go to vote.
Oh, BTW, Jay and Sheet’s Byrd want a commemorative Mother’s Day coin. Perhaps they could get their buds in the Democrat run House to pass the resolution supporting the goals and ideals of Mother’s Day first.
