Struggling Families React To Biden’s Child Tax Credit Proposal | NBC News NOW
They get plenty of food stamps thats a fact also hud biden dosnt care about families without kids or elderly still living on salarys from 1960 and shock America there are also white families struggling just like they are povertyx effects us all the only white privileges and whites with money now days live in the white house
Good job moron! Got parents that use all that money on tattoos and hair dye, but don't buy the kids sh*t, and you wana give them more money? Then there's the parents that would rather use it for weed and other drugs. You know the ones that DFCS has as friends on Facebook. Dude with the dementia stepping up as pres, good job.
Struggling on other’s tax dollars?
Iam single i want help to
This guy is a real man, taking care of his pregnant wife, kid AND sick mom.
Just living beyond their means!!
Welfare only enslaves people to the state
Yeah Aaron. I can’t wait to watch you on NBC News Now on Monday at Noon.
We all need help
One of the problems is that we generalize everything. For instance having a poverty rating the same for every state. The highest "poverty" rates are in red states, but the lowest cost of living is also red states. 26k in Mississippi goes alot further than 26k in Seattle or LA. Each state should be addressed differently and shouldn't be treated the same on a federal level.
Well alot of people in America be thinking, did I Vote the wrong person… Well you can answer that your self…
I think just about everyone is struggling right now, some much worse than others. As a Mother of 4 grown sons I remember the struggle for food, clothes, medical and dental care, school supplies and more seemed neverending and insurmountable.
Thank u . Mr president
Biden is not a very smart racist
Perhaps everyone should stroll on over to Dave Ramsey’s page for some ideas
Someone need to stop these landlords from going up on people's rent every year, just because they can. Nobody to help the people.
Well if you get some kind of assistance from the government whether it be help with rent or food stamps. With that extra money all its gone do is your rent going up and your food stamps getting cut down so how is that helping the people
Stop having kids you cant afford. I know its a confusing idea. But if you aint got money than dont have kids. Literally its that simple.
Did they voted Biden?
Imagine the leader of the free world takes orders from China
How much is the larger lump sum per child?
Either way. I'm smelling a tax raise coming.
BIDEN IS A POS FRAUD
NBC News and Michael Che spread conspiracy theory.
To many people in this country stop having kids. It the kids who will suffer in the long run.
There's people with kids who only work like one month in a entire year. And they get like $10,000 at tax season. That is a scam to the system
We give Israel $10,000,000 a day. A DAY! We can afford this and free medical if we wean Israel off the American teat…..
Imagine being paid a livable wages to all especially poor people. With less taxes instead of depending like half a century ago; sadly no as this has eroded the middle class. Once a man was able to afford a house, transport & a family only two generations ago; the is not working.
Helow
Those who voted for sleepy Joe ,25%, are paying the price,and will continue to pay the price.
Well I have said it before. Reduce the house an senate Republicans pay to 7.25 a hour and no over time pay.
People don’t need to be having babies
Someone has to pay for this
So who?
More theft from the working earning to BUY votes. END welfare via tax code
In Canada anyone that has a child gets 600$ monthly per child. Also if your out of work because of covid you get 2000$ a month since march last year.
Remember the VW diesel engine emissions test?

This seems like a no brainer. Even passengers can see this is a win win for our country.
we as mother we just do what we need to do to take care of our children!
Can't understand GOP…you can't have an abortion or ANY prevention of pregnancy, but we want you to SUFFER for having a child. 😳
People need to be able make more money in these jobs to me that’s the start working people for low wages then these company’s wanting you to do more than what there paying people wouldn’t need a bail out if these jobs pay wages worth working for but the government allow these company’s to pay poverty wages to the working class it’s a shame
America out of order!
Yes the Dad in the story is right ▶️
Maybe he should stop perming his hair and getting her pregnant
What about the single people without children?
If people cannot even support themselves financially, they should not be having children, because they are forcing the child care burden on others that chose to invest in other things besides having kids.
Get a job, or 2 or 3, go outside and look for aluminum cans, sell plasma, hit the pavement in your neighborhood and do some odd jobs, whatever it takes to provide for YOUR children instead of passing that burden onto others. The rest of us are already paying for YOUR children's education and healthcare, people, need to be more responsible if they are looking to have some fun making babies.
Dispense contraception, not money.
Why don't they ever think to reduce prices of rent, medical/dental care and healthy food.
Macdonald are hiring is immoral to have babys on WELFARE d you
