5,000 baby bonus

trump is floating out an idea for american taxpayers paying woman to have kids

One such proposal that has been pitched to White House advisers is a $5,000 “baby bonus” to every American mother after she gives birth.

“Sounds like a good idea to me,” President Donald Trump said Tuesday when asked about a $5,000 incentive for new mothers.

just a great idea, plenty of money of money to be made here in dover, woman here have them for free here. hispanics here have no problem having children and lots of them.

another bad idea by trump.

This definitely sounds like something that was come up with by Musk. He’s one of those guys who’s fully convinced the world population will go extinct in a century or two if birth rates don’t increase

Why should the mother be entitled to the entire $5K ? Feels a bit DEI-ey :wink:

Dumb idea, dumb opening argument. Dumb all around.

Thanks for the slow news cycle, Trump! :rofl:

The father still has to put up with her the whole time. He deserves 30% more.

The daddy might be a baby daddy?

Anyway, it has no future if planned barrenhood gets nothing…

Parents-in-planning should create their own financial incentives. Millennial and Zoomer parents should have their finances arranged into a fortress before they even consider kids.

Sounds like the tax credit that libs support . . . (if doing that let’s them oppose an R)

Wait! Trump is an advisor?
I thought he was the actual president.

Absolutely.

If they implement it, it should only be for married mothers.

odd, I didn’t hear this when Kamala was proposing a $5000 refundable credit for new parents.

An advisor suggested something Kamala Harris likes

Lib response?

Should be splitg 50/50 with the father.

But in all seriousness.

$5000 is a drop in the bucket. The cost of raising a child to age 18 runs from $250,000 to $500,000, so that doesnt include college.

Child care costs are crushing and is a major factor in young people forgoing having children. Unlike the old days in an agrarian where more kids meant more hands working the ranch/land, the raising of children today costs resoruces not generates them.

(OK, that may not have been the most tactful way to put it. But you know what I mean.)

I think that’s totally accurate. No need to apologize for it.

Thank you.
