#3 No. It's the party of Slaves and Slaveowners. It hasn't changed since it's conception and the slavery of the old south where slaveowners were overwhelmingly Democrat. Look at the blue cities - it hasn't really changed.

#4 For working people, the monthly payments were merely an advance on their tax refunds.

Technically speaking it's an advance on the child tax credit, and I guaranfuckintee there will be lots and lots of pissed off people come April 15th and / or a few months after they file if they claim the full credit regardless of these payments.

#6 M. Murcek, I agree currently they are happy to spend, spend, spend, but the GOP is a party in transition. Hopefully part of that is learning a little fiscal discipline.
