You Were Conned. Now Pay.

Yes, you were conned folks — young folks.
Specifically, you were conned out of your vote; promised $400 billion in benefits you gleefully voted to steal from everyone else.
You apparently didn’t reconsider when you saw that doing the same thing with $600/wk checks during the pandemic to sit around and drink beer or smoke bongs (depending on which state you lived in, obviously) did to prices of, well…. everything from a dozen eggs to cars to insurance to a house. Naw, you didn’t need any of that, right?
Nope — “gimme mine, screw you” has been the mantra, and you voted for it.
Even though no less than Nancy Pelosi, the saintly left-leaning former Speaker of the House, said it was not within the Executive’s power and if it was to occur Congress had to do it.
