I believe Joe Biden is intent on taking this country back to a time when Democrats’ policies destroyed the family unit.

During a 2019 campaign event, Biden referred to himself as the “savior around the world.” He touted a plan to force American taxpayers to fund abortion through Planned Parenthood. Just one week after taking office, he restored tens of millions of taxpayer dollars to the International Planned Parenthood Federation, which performs nearly 1 million abortions every year.

Not to worry though because Biden has a plan.

In the $1.9 trillion stimulus package is cash allowance for children under age 6, which equates to $300 every month, and for children ages 6 to 17, a $3,000 cash allowance which equates to $250 every month. Although the stimulus is temporary, Biden may make this permanent.

He has learned nothing about the problems of the past of which he was a party to, or just maybe that has been the intent of the far left all along.

In 1965, 24% of Black infants and 3.1% of white infants were born into fatherless families. Children living in single-parent homes are at greater risk of living in poverty. The culprit, according to political scientist Charles A. Murray, is the “overly generous federal welfare benefits.”

Why would Biden want to take us back to that time? The answer is simple: Make the public reliant on the government and you hold power over them.
