Large portions of this massive 2,468-page bill support a socialist agenda! The so-called “Build Back Better” (BBB) bill will do all the following, and much more:
- Eliminate the Hyde Amendment, which will make your tax dollars directly pay for elective abortions.
- Pay for socialized medicine for certain Americans.
- Authorize government oversight of every financial account that has $10,000 in transactions over a year, which will trigger the IRS to look at every $600 transaction.
- Give the IRS 78,935,000,000 dollars (almost 80 billion) to increase audits and other enforcement efforts.
- Pay an additional 150 million to IRS lawyers to drag people to court.
- Block faith-based child care organizations from receiving funding.
- Establish taxpayer-funded babysitting and tuition from preschool up to the sixth semester in college.
- Devastate black communities by kicking independent contractors and temporary workers out of their jobs, forcing child care workers to be college graduates and taking over housing in local communities.
- Offer state-issued identification—essentially amnesty and citizenship—to illegal immigrants.
- Pay child support to illegal immigrants, motivating more border crossings.
- Offer welfare without any work, or attempt to work, requirements.
- Take more inheritance from children and limit them to receive 50% less from their parents’ property.
- Give unions nearly total control and subject owners and employers to penalties while exempting union bosses and officials.
- Create a radicalized, militarized “corps” for climate change, fully funded by taxpayers for housing, food, salaries, travel, etc.
