News@lemmy.world•Trump Pledges $5,000 Payments to Adults if Republicans Win Congress
38·2 days agoLet’s do the basic math here: 270 million adults × $5,000 = $1.35 trillion. Where is this money coming from? He promised us $2,000 tariff checks and those never happened. Now he’s blatantly trying to buy votes right before the midterms with taxpayer money we don’t have. Even if this wasn’t an empty promise, dropping $1.3T directly into the economy while inflation and gas prices are already high from the Middle East conflict would completely trash the dollar

83·4 days agoUkraine is considering dismantling its ban on pornography as lawmakers seek to bring a large online adult industry into the tax system and redirect millions of dollars toward the country’s wartime needs.
Yaroslav Zhelezniak, an opposition lawmaker who chairs Parliament’s finance committee, estimates legalization could generate as much as $25 million a year, according to The Wall Street Journal.
He says that would be enough to finance about 30,000 drones.
The sum is modest against Ukraine’s stated annual defense requirement of $120 billion.
However, supporters argue the industry is already generating taxable income while operating under laws that expose creators to criminal prosecution.
A bill co-authored by Zhelezniak passed its first parliamentary vote in July and is awaiting a second reading.
