Sen. Cory Booker is proposing a plan—the American Opportunity Accounts Act—that he calculates will provide $46,215 to every 18-year-old in the lowest income bracket by giving them annual subsidies in a federally managed saving account. Booker cited his plan in a Tweet he sent out this morning. “We must close the wealth gap that’s undermining equal opportunity in our country,” Booker said in his Tweet. “My baby bonds will help level the playing field by creating a savings account for every U.S. child—to invest in themselves through things like paying for higher education.”


Dem presidential candidates in a race to see who can give away the most taxpayer dollars.

Federally managed savings account = another slush fund.

And that's one of the more appealing parts of this plan.

The idea of actually working for money and to get ahead seems like a foreign idea to these people.

I can do better than that.

50K for every child plus a lifetime supply of street tacos and fair trade coffee.

Your move, Spartacus.

Annual subsidies for poor adults? That will end well.

The number of ODs on payout day will be tremendous.

How about funding some sort of payment by putting 50% of EITC payments based on children into savings for them to receive when they turn 18?

And he would raise my taxes to do it.


I would get the benefit of paying for a couple other peoples kids and then struggling to send my last 2 kids to college.

Then the very bastards that I would be subsidizing would end up getting affirmative action quota preference over my own kids.

I'm so glad to live in a country that wants to take from me and mine to pay for some other worthless frickers

Rush made a great point on his radio program today. He said," With all the things that the left is promising for free, why do they also mention getting people jobs?"
"Who needs a job when everything is free!"

Yeah because that’s exactly what the 18year olds would use that money for. Fool proof plan. What could go wrong?
