‘I like the idea of giving every baby born in America a $5,000 account that will grow over time, so that when that young person turns 18 if they have finished high school they will be able to access it to go to college or maybe they will be able to make that down payment on their first home,’ she said.

Answer 1

She's gonna raise the taxes of those of us who work our asses off to pay our own way ! How come people who keep popping out babies don't use their big fat income tax returns with their "earned income credit" to save for college if that is Hitlary's goal ?

Answer 2

Do you realize more than half of the children using this health care will be children born to illegal immigrants?

If Amnesty is given each illegal immigrant can bring as many family members into the USA as the like. Millions more on welfare, free medical care at the taxpayer expense.

If Amnesty is given millions of middle class Americans will no longer be able to afford health care. Health care costs will soar because of all the illegals draining the system and the cost will be passed on to you the legal American.

Can you and your family afford another $2,500 a year to pay for the illegals?
Not only that,chances favor you losing your job because your employer will replace you with an immigrant paying them lower wages.
So, too sum this all up, your taxes and health care costs will sky rocket. You will probably lose your job with in the next 5 years and nobody will care about you and your family. You won't qualify for any help from the government because the illegals will have exhausted all benefits intended for legal Americans.

Answer 3

I may sound like a liberal wacko, but this might actually be one of the most reasonable proposals someone on the left could make.
If that $5000 were invested in the stock market and kept in the child's name so that they could use it when they turn 18 for education, it could be worth $40,000 or so. That would give many people a decent start in life.
But you know liberals, stock markets and capitalism is bad, so of course you could never invest it. Put it into a pyramid scheme like social security or something. use it to pay health insurance for the first 5 years of the kid's life until the money is gone. Give it to the parents so they have more beer money. Typical liberal things.

Answer 4

Remember, illegal alien pregnant women can come accross the border, deliver their baby for free in any hospital, the child automatically becomes an American citizen and receives a check for $5000.

Perhaps we can provide an express lane on the road from Mexico?

Answer 5

Perhaps if the Congress gives up their $15,000/mth pensions and cut their salaries back to $90,000 annually as well as reducing the presidents benefits and salary this would be something to actually consider. Otherwise, it's just a blatant attempt to buy the poor vote. To pay for it yes, there will have to be a tax increase. Otherwise we will continue increasing our national debt until we collapse.

Answer 6

Hillary does not actually intend to do this ? I believe it's a promise , she won't make good on. It's just PR , a promise , maybe Chelsea will roll it out in 20 years ?

Answer 7

Hillary only knows how to raise taxes to pay for whatever she wants. If the Dems take control of the House, Senate and White House, hold onto your wallet.

Answer 8

She will offer everyone a chunk of the moon if she thought it would convince people to vote for her. She does not care if she can actually give it. All she wants is to convince.

Answer 9

Next she's going to offer to personally provide a happy

ending to every American!

Answer 10

And just how much again is this awful war in Iraq costing us? And how many troops have died in vain? Before you start complaining about $5,000 per child, why don't you protest this lousy, expensive, dangerous war we're stuck in?!
