They are talking about payments to lower income people to offset the higher prices.
The whole thing is so stupid. If I was the Dems I would have this on the front burner of everything but they won't because they are talking about gas stoves.
This would really nuke the middle class. Imagine making 100K a year in a metro area and needing some kind of government hand out because everything costs 30% more. If you would even be eligible, which I doubt you would be because the cut off will probably be ridiculously low. Also how do you factor in cost of living for certain areas? 100K goes a lot further in Arkansas than San Francisco.
