Last One, We Promise

Via Ace Of Spades:

The Emergency Gasoline Assistance Act (H.R. 6561) would create a program to provide $5 billion to states as a one-time grant with the money designated to provide assistance to families of modest means to purchase gasoline.

Right. A one-time welfare grant. That requires the creation of fifty sets of state infrastructure to manage. It'll only be used this one time.

Sure.

And as we all know, providing a government subsidy causes prices to drop. Right, Medicare? Right, ethanol?

Maybe they should just pass out debit cards tied directly into my bank account.
