I want to buy your vote

That was the first thought when I read this article, linked to above, and then that first thought was quickly followed up by ... "Just how are they going to pay for it?

Hey, I'm all for free money to help with the medical bills and such but EVERY American making under $100,000?  Folks making 100,000 to 100,599 will be looking for a cut in pay to put them under the $100,000 mark since under this Democrat's plan someone making $99,000 will get an additional $6,000 meaning their annual take will be $105,000 whereas a person making $100,001 will not get that break and thus will actually be bringing home less than if they were making less.  I know sounds crazy but Some folks are going to be left out, they always are.

Then, again ... how is she/(they) going to pay for it?

Be as the Bereans ( Acts 17:11 )

Could it be that trump is trying to buy their vote? Or should the farmers reject the aid money for the good of the country?

Guess you could view the assistance as you are but I see it as help to fight against the negative effects of the trade war where the farmers are hurt in the retaliation from China due to the act where President Trump put tariffs on many Chinese products.  If Trump didn't offer the money folks would just accuse him of not caring what happened to our own citizens due to his trade war with China.  One of those darned if you do and darned. if you don't moves.
