    U.S. farmers will soon begin receiving government checks as part of a billion-dollar bailout to buoy growers experiencing financial strain from Pres. Trump's trade disputes with China. https://abcn.ws/2xAJWw8 pic.twitter.com/0JQfEonBB5

        Government checks = welfare. Will they be drug tested?

        No! It’s mostly Caucasian (males) who voted for him so no drug test and no proof of employment.

        No! It’s totally OK when the checks are for white people in the “heartland”! Browns need to bootstrap them selves.

        No one does. Why is free college a priority over free or subsidized childcare which would help with both college and work? Because it would primarily help women.

        I agree, free childcare would help so many rise out of poverty ~ daycare costs more than many women get paid! ~ and it would be good for the economy. But far as I can tell neither of those things is a priority to anyone in government.
