Like the rest of the budget, there's no realistic plan to 'pay' for it. UBI and MMT are birds of a feather. QE to infinity, unlimited plunge protection and stock buybacks. Cui bono? Just like every other power grab, those who question the narrative will be painted as lacking compassion for the underclasses, "think of the children", "the robots are coming", ad nasuem. Rationality will be dismissed with appeals to emotion. We've seen it all before. There's nothing new under the sun. Identity politics and class warfare enters stage left, "If you don't like this, you hate group X. If you are part of group X and you don't like it, then you don't know what is good for you!". Benevolent and condescending feel good guilt culture abounds. I read it in comments here regularly. I don't argue, I don't bother to disagree. I hedge accordingly.
