BREAKING. Vice President #Harris just unveiled her economic policy agenda, which includes:
* Eliminating medical debt for millions of Americans
* A ban on price gouging for groceries and food
* A cap on prescription drug costs
* A $25,000 subsidy for first-time homebuyers
* A Child Tax Credit that would provide $6,000 per child to families for the first year of a baby's life
@GottaLaff Policy that benefits the people!? Blasphemous!
Should she win, (*when* she wins…) the Gang O Pricks will do everything they can to ensure she can’t deliver on any of it.
4-8 years of Dem POTUS and Congress could potentially yank us out of the dark ages the MAGA cultists are striving for.
Vote Blue up and down the ballot.
@nonproductive @GottaLaff I sure hope the pricks can stop her; price controls are like pretty much always disastrous. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/08/kamala-harris-economic-policies-price-gouging/679483/
@ech @GottaLaff I think a choice had to be made between being fiscally responsible or helping the middle class out of the slump the GOP and Capitalism created.
That said, without a bipartisan Congress - none of this will ever see daylight anyway….
@nonproductive @GottaLaff price controls don't really help anyone, though. (But her implementation of this probably won't end up doing much at all, so I'm not panicking yet.)
@MasterMischief @nonproductive @GottaLaff so we can use spite to shop around? I like it
@ech @nonproductive @GottaLaff Maybe publish who is raising prices while raking in record profits? Less control, more kicking knowledge.
