You could, but it wouldn't be remotely close being factually accurate. I'd be more than willing to entertain her proposal if it were accompanied by a dollar for dollar cut in entitlement and welfare spending, or if the tax credit acted as a "deductible" where individuals and families had to spend at least the amount received in tax credit prior to receiving and entitlement or welfare funds.

I agree. Even making that assertion demonstrates why ECON 101 should be a required course even in high school. We are constantly reminded by comments like the above that the left has no clue as to how basic economics works.

Individuals making less than $50,000 would be eligible for up to $250 a month, $3,000 a year.

This is what you call buying votes.

So, Kamala Harris favors the richer over the poorer. Not that we didn't already know that.
