“But as the pandemic receded, so did the expanded credit’s chances of survival. In January 2022, Republicans and Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin refused to extend it. The effects of the program’s end were immediate, driving 3.7 million more children back into poverty that month compared with the month before.“


“Critics argued the revamped policy was too costly and guaranteed monthly payments would discourage parents from finding work. But research showed the 2021 payments did not deter parents from working”

It's amazing how Inflation can drive people back to work when the costs of living outpace the stimulus.

What a wonderful way to keep Americans busy while DC taxes the hell out of poor people with inflation.

As I asked before......

"Find these facts......

#1 during what time periods were the covid  "payments made?
#2 What was poverty rate prior to "Covid payments:
#3 What was poverty rate after "covid paymants"
#4 How was poverty defined in 2019
#5 How was poverty defined in 2020
#6 How was poverty defined in 2021
#7 How was poverty defined in 2022
#8 What was inflation rate in 2019? 2020,2021,2022
#9 What was labor participation rate in 2019? 2020,2021,2022
#10 What party controlled the  House when the payments ended?
#11 What party controlled the Senate when payments ended.

When a sycophant uses ad hominem , he merely supports his sycophancy."

Right, stimulus would incentivize people not to work if it hadn’t caused inflation. So the government caused inflation so people wouldn’t quit their jobs. That was diabolical

One should worship leftist Billionaire media exclusively, because they are the ones that can exploit the poor in an approved and humane way...
