Coming soon: $500 to every newborn!

The "Reverend" (Pffft! LOL) Jesse Jackson will think he's hit the Lotto...

Yea, those 'rich' mothers don't need $500 from the government.

They only need to 'pay' for those 'poor' mothers' babies through 'taxes.'. .

Not Good, looks like they just want the government even more involved if possible.

How nice.(Sarcasm) After all those trillions of $$$ and a legacy of debt for generations to come our children still come out behind.

I smell the same winds that formed the Social Security system - I also foresee the same end for this program.

[WartHog]

Aaargggh!!! Unbelievable!!!!

[Idefix]

Another (misguided) incentive for people that can't afford to have kids in the first place to produce even more of them. Tragic.

I honestly don't believe this. When is the ENTITLEMENT mentality going to end???

Want to encourage people to save? REDUCE THEIR TAX BURDEN TO ALLOW THE MONEY TO DO SO!!!! Also, offer further tax deductions for any additional savings families make. Pays for itself, drives the economy, and ENCOURAGES people to save! NOT "LEAN ON ME" mentality!

Cradle to the grave, we're getting there faster and faster...
