    Default Tlaib wants to give a pass to people who don't pay water, electricity internet bill

    Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib is pushing for legislation that would let people who fail to pay their water, electricity or broadband bills off the hook.

    "Cancel water, electricity and broadband debt," the Squad member tweeted Wednesday morning. "#StopTheShutoffs."

    Right, it will all be taken care of by the magic money machine in the Federal Reserve. Stuff like this is how we got to a $28 trillion deficit, much of it owed to China.

    There are assistance programs for poor people, but in this case it appears one could simply decide not to pay regardless of one’s income.

    Not sure what volsrock said, but Rashida generally knows what she's talking about.
    Nice girl. We need more like folks like Rashida in Congress.

    Biden & D’s are implementing socialism using COVID as a backdrop


    Now AOC wants more things for free. They’re going to destroy everything that made this country great.

    We have the smart grid, right? So how about 12 hours of electric a day? And roll the internet speed back to dial-up, no movie streaming, and no social media.

    Want more u pay your a high price for it!

    Hmmm. Feel free to pay their bills for them APL. Do the right thing. Ask Tliab how many checks she has personally written while you are at it.
