Trump is putting direct payments back at the center of the economic debate.
the administration says more than 20M Medicare Part B enrollees will receive a one-time $90 payment in October to help cover premiums.
then there’s the much larger proposal.
Trump has pledged a $5,000 “Trump Dividend” for every adult U.S. citizen if Republicans retain control of Congress after the November midterms.
at roughly 240M eligible adults, that would put the potential cost around $1.2T.
but the $5,000 payment is still a proposal and would require congressional approval.
two very different payments, but both point to the same issue:
direct cash is becoming a major part of the U.S. economic and political conversation.
