Dumb "baby bond" idea from Hillary's baby brain

[bluesbassman]

I haven't seen this posted yet.

Ms. Clinton has proposed that every child born in the U.S. be given a $5K baby bond.

This idiotic proposal deserves little comment, other than I'd rather my tax money go towards buying every child a pony.

You just can't argue with this reasoning:

"I think it's a wonderful idea," said Rep. Stephanie Stubbs Jones, an Ohio Democrat who attended the event and has already endorsed Clinton. "Every child born in the United States today owes $27,000 on the national debt, why not let them come get $5,000 to grow until their 18?"

does anyone have an article i can read on why this is a good idea. it says britain has similar system and Times magazine talked about this, so it at least has to have some support or rationale.

funny thing in britian is that walmart sells some sort of investment package you can invest in with you baby bond. If you think walmart does everything in the US you gotta check out walmart (tesco) in england

Wow that's a pretty nasty typo for a professional news site.
