  3. Shame on you Joe Manchin and every Republican that voted against feeding children. Shame!

  4. Only solutions is don’t have kids tell u know Ure ready

  5. I don't know who needs to hear this but stop depending on the GOVT. and saving all your money, Invest some of it if you want financial freedom.

  6. Don't be too good for a food pantry!

  7. If people were paid a living wage people could afford their families without having to work multiple jobs!!! Vote out these no good senators!!!

  8. People who cannot afford to eat should be shot on sight. They are obviously a burden to society. I am pro abortion.

  9. Free money causes inflation.

  10. "WE DON'T WANT NO TAX CREDITS FOR OUR KIDS! WE'D RATHER STRUGGLE AND THEM STARVE BECAUSE; LIBS! ~WV

  11. We can send Ukraine billions and spend a trillion in Afghanistan but when come to America own people screw them.. This is Democrat and Republicans. $300 is not a lot of $$$ a month that's not enough to feed a family of 4..

  12. For a democrat, Manchin is one heck of a Republican

  13. thanks to manchin, sinema and republican parry for boycotting the country. Their political gains are a priority and above anything else.

  14. WHERE IS THE PRO-LIFE DAD?

  15. So how much of that free fun money did she stash away for a rainy day, or for when the gravy stopped?

  16. Ubi would fix so much of this.

  17. Yup we only as a whole Americans got 13percent of the package who the rest I wonder?

  18. Jujutsu is not something you need. A freaking joke

  19. Go get a job, maybe two, but stop getting our country in more debt this is why inflation is so bad.

  20. I grew up during the last time inflation ran rapid. Got my first real store bought clothes when I went into 7th grade due to no more handme downs available from my older cousins. Only had two pair of shoes. 1 pair of dress shoes to wear everyday and a pair of kmart special tennie for gym class witch turned into summer shoes. But we did have karatie class. Usually in someone front yard with no instructors and it was free. Inflation going to be with us for awhile. So practice thighting ones belt. Were only on the second inning of this ball game.

  21. Yes because we need it

  22. So sad, but give $33Billion away to help others matters…Oh yeah with our money…so crazy

  23. A report on how hard it is to feed a child, while at the same time about half of all U.S. children are either overweight or obese.

  24. Wow 4 kids and you have money issues, shocking 🙄

  25. They are giving 33 BILLION to other country they ALWAYS HELP OTHER COUNTRIES but ask them to HELP AMERICANS!! ROBBING OFF THE TOP must be EASIER if the MONEY is LEAVING the COUNTRY!!!

  26. Didn’t help me. Had to pay it all back come tax time.

  27. How's that 9% inflation

  28. Must be great spending someone else's money.

  29. There is no doubt Vladimir Putin is a tyrant , just like Trump and he's GOP that's full of tyrants , how far is the GOP willing to go , in destroying our democracy and the woman's right to choose , they're a disgrace to themselves and to our country…………….

  30. We pay people to have kids in an overpopulated world 🤦‍♂️

  31. The real question is if it is absolutely necessary for $686.1 billion allocated for the Defence budget? These statitics were from 2018, and probably much higher today. $686.1 Billion is more than 3x what China spent on its defence in 2018. Additionally, with NATO so unified nowadays, shouldn't some of that cost that the US spends go down if more NATO countries are paying their fair share? If so, then perhaps shaving this a tad might be more helpful to all Americans who face shortages of food, and be able to better implement a bi-partisan infrastructure bill to fix our roads, bridges, universal access to internet, among other programs to support American families in need. Maybe I am grabbing at straws here, but imho the American people and their taxpayer dollars funding the govt. shouldn't be forgotten by those who are elected to represent them. America should identify where the wasteful spending is, and put it to better use because I am sure that basic hammers shouldn't be sold to the US govt. for highly inflated prices nor should certain govt. agencies have the expectation for their budgets to be in the RED by the end of the fiscal year to manipulate a need for more funding by basically wasting Taxpayer dollars on newly-purchased equipment/technology that go to the trash heaps instead of sharing that with communities/schools in need 1st. Waste is a BIG problem in Govt. spending.

  32. REPUBLICANS are CORPORATE GARBAGE 🗑

  33. You liberals want money invested in your children? Us conservatives want money invested in wars! That's what a true conservative Christian does. That, and grab women by the genitals. We're full of pride with all our winning. Don't worry though, you'll get our thoughts and prayers.

  34. Great video, thank you! Children are so important, and taking care of them will pay societal dividends later.
