In a surprising turn of events, a political coup took place on July 21, 2024, orchestrated by Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer, resulting in the replacement of Joe Biden.
Vice President Harris, however, refrained from holding a press conference to discuss the transition of power and the initiation of her campaign.
The silence was broken when the campaign team decided to arrange an interview with Tim Walz, a decision that was met with significant backlash. Walz, a Master Sergeant accused of Stolen Valor, used the term White Guy Tacos during the interview, causing a significant uproar and undermining the credibility of the interview.
On August 6, 2024, Harris attempted to shed light on her economic policy, a move that was met with a lukewarm response. The crowd was notably thin, and Harris's speech was filled with ambiguous plans that seemed to aim at expanding government control over American society.
According to the Gateway Pundit, the Washington Post expressed skepticism about Harris's plan, while The Atlantic noted, The vice presidents campaign promises make no sense to people acquainted with supply and demandbut they might win elections. This suggests that the plan may appeal to low-information voters and illegal immigrants who stand to gain from increased government handouts.
The centerpiece of the Harris Plan, or K-Plan, is a promise to deliver three million homes over four years. This ambitious goal raises questions, considering the government's track record with the 2008 Cash for Klunkers Program, which resulted in significant financial losses. The same government that spent nearly $8 billion to build just eight electric vehicle charging stations now promises to deliver three million homes, a claim that seems dubious at best.
The K-Plan, while filled with lofty aspirations, appears to pander to interest groups. It emphasizes Starter Homes and Low-Income Rentals, terms that critics argue are code for prioritizing illegal immigrants over American citizens.
The housing shortage in America is already exacerbated by government initiatives such as open borders and overregulation, which deter home builders and home repair businesses. These factors force small businesses to relocate to states like Texas and Florida, where they can operate without the burdensome oversight found in blue states.
Barrons has expressed skepticism about the feasibility of the K-Plan, stating it is Unlikely to get done. Even if some progress were made, it's doubtful that Americans would be satisfied with the government's offerings. The plan seems to echo Oprahs everybody gets a car scheme, but if the government's track record is any indication, the homes delivered may resemble World War II-style barracks more than comfortable, modern housing.
The K-Plan also revives the tired clich of price gouging, a term that riles up low-information voters but lacks a clear definition. In Harris's plan, this translates to more government bureaucracy and unelected officials making decisions, a system reminiscent of New York City's Rent Control. While this may sound fair, it discourages property owners from investing in their properties, leading to deteriorating conditions and a dwindling supply of available housing.
CNN has expressed concerns about the K-Plan's approach to price gouging, stating, Harris plan to stop price gouging could create more problems than it solves. While the idea of a faceless bureaucrat holding corporations accountable may appeal to some, it's a deceptive promise that could stifle competition and discourage investment.
The K-Plan also appears to borrow heavily from former President Trump's campaign themes, including No Tax on Tips and the Child Tax Credit plan. However, the K-Plan's version of the Child Tax Credit seems to offer only a one-time $6,000 credit for the first year of a child's life, a far cry from Trump's more generous plan.
The K-Plan also includes an Earned Income Credit to help those who do not benefit from a child tax credit. However, critics argue that the Obama-Harris team's decisions are politically motivated, potentially leading to policies that encourage dependence on the government or penalize those who choose to home-school or seek education outside the public school system.
The K-Plan, while light on details and heavy on divisive themes, seems to be a smokescreen for the rise of communism in America. It's a plan that promises much but delivers little, and one that could have far-reaching implications for the future of the country.
