      We're at that point, which is more or less the definition of "fascism". FT put out an article this morning about the supply chain crunch with the exact quote

      The supply chain is essentially in the hands of the private sector so we need the private sector to step up to help solve these problems.

      The solutions being offered are "making workers work 24/7 at ports and shipping hubs" fyi.

    So they kept capital subsidies but threw out social welfare, sounds about right.

    A person is clinging to a cliff, their finger strength almost about to give out. You’re 10 feet away and can run and save them but time is running out. Two people hold either of your arms and argue over whether you should go 5 feet and stop or 3 feet and stop. They settle on going 1 foot forward and then evaluating from there. Oh the person clinging to the cliff fell like a long time ago

    In: paying more money directly to insurance companies

    Why are the two columns backwards? Everything in the "out" column is good and everything in the "in" column is a narrowly tailored half-measure.

      Bigger than the current child tax credit, smaller than the one proposed by the party leadership. Very poorly written infographic.

        Poorly written doesn't begin to describe that.

        At any rate, it's more centrist (let's be real, conservative) means testing for everything.
