I've been a moderate dem in recent elections, but this "transfer of wealth" is wrong.
Add in the "open ended" unemployment supplements with " human infrastructure" stuff and dems will lose votes in 2022.

I'd never vote for Trump, but you can bet I'm voting for the current republican Gov, Lt Gov and Sec of State , here in Georgia.
Plus, I'll give serious consideration for voting for any reasonable republicans running for other spots.

The Dems are buying votes with the minorities.

I agree, but every politician "panders" to their base.
Unlike some, when I see THAT, it reduces my support and possible vote.

Very true, Howard.

Your average Joe votes with his wallet.

This kind of thing has been going in one form or another since time began.

In simpler times you got free drinks for your vote.
