The money just goes back into the US economy. It will have the same effect as the stimulus checks.

At the end of the day, the thing that will make or break this is having more money in our pockets and our dollar going further.

I would rather see the money either pay down the National debt, or create individual Social Security accounts.

$200 at birth into an individual account for each citizen followed by $200 monthly until age 55. I think that would be a pretty popular program if people could retire at 55.

Keep the Social Security accounts away from the politicians. One less thing for them to argue about and blame each other for its failures

Yes, I agree. That seems to be the common theme with just about every federal program.

I kinda like this idea but then what happens when “crooked people” get back into office-nothing is guaranteed EVER, except death and taxes. I could have never imagined payments to 200-year-old people, through the $$ we’ve paid the government.

It would be great to have the money. However I am more interested in a long term reduction in the percentage of taxes coming out of my paycheck. With all of the money Doge is finding/saving and the obvious theft and misappropriation I believe a reduction in what We The People pay out of every paycheck would be a feasible solution and go a long way to encouraging people to work on the books.

Also, if the government is receiving less money, they should be forced to budget appropriately.

I say do it! It may tame the naysayers, encouraging their support for the DOGE and then DOGE will continue their good works, and possibly even future dividends. I appreciate those who are financial geniuses. If it works, then do it.

And it’s only 20%… so unless math has changed :) that still leaves 80% of the savings to go towards debt/legit domestic programs

perhaps that would shut up the crybabies and complainers.

Oh they will still complain— but I bet they will take that money while they are crying lol

I feel it is too early to make promises. I would like the debt to be paid down and taxes reduced from the paychecks. Stop taxing SS checks. Strengthen our dollar.

Love this idea!

This would be so much more satisfying than Biden’s nonsensical stimulus checks

Considering the years and years of fraud and likely money laundering from all those USAID “contracts” (these supposed “contracts” just have to be faked paperwork to funnel our taxpayer dollars into politician bank accounts!), I feel getting even this small portion back is appropriately owed to us.

I hope Elon and Trump are able to trace politician’s accounts and claim back our lost money. We could put that money towards amping up Social Security for those of us in our late 30’s that constantly fear it drying up and not being available when we retire.

Veterans should have better benefits. Homeless programs. Starving children. The uses of finding all that stolen money are endless! Granted SS and Medicare/Medicaid investigations need to be completed. A HUGE thanks to Elon and Trump for jumping on this!

If this idea of removing income taxes goes through, I would happily contribute a large portion of this to SS, M/M, VA, and many others to help my fellow Americans thrive.

20% of our 400 billion is a bit insulting. Just for it to be over taxed AGAIN. Don’t get me wrong. I support this, but I think it’s insulting.

So how and when this money coming to us Americans

I could use the $. But, I would rather payoff the debt. My children and their children don't need a $36 Trillion dollar debt doubling and tripling

Not everyone who pays federal income would be eligible? Is that correct

How can I get in contact with you? I found a video on TikTok I think you need to have sent to the authorities
