Blue Tweet issued 20,000 yuan to everyone, which is unconstitutional and requires borrowing. Xu Guoyong said: It would be better to just send 1 million yuan

In response to the Kuomintang's increase in cash distribution of 20,000 yuan to save the election, yesterday's proposal in the Legislative Yuan required that universal cash distribution of 20,000 yuan before the election be paid for the second reading and handed over for negotiation. In response to this, DPP Secretary-General Xu Guoyong was in Changhua City today (17th) afternoon to assist Chen Suyue, the DPP's candidate for Changhua County Governor. He criticized that the 20,000 yuan universal cash distribution was not only unconstitutional, but also required a debt of 230 billion yuan. He stressed that the government's proposal for a universal distribution of NT$10,000 would be distributed to everyone using national tax surpluses. There is no need to borrow money and it will not increase the burden on the next generation just to distribute money.

Chen Suyue held the founding meeting of the four major social groups supporting Suyue Support Association at her campaign headquarters. Xu Guoyong personally attended the platform. When delivering a speech on the stage, he used an analogy of family life. Parents who have money can give their children pocket money, but if they have no money, do they still need to borrow money for their children to play? He said that the government should have the same reason for distributing money. It should not borrow money to issue this kind of money, but should share the income from economic development with all the people within the scope of not borrowing money.

Xu Guoyong pointed out that the Kuomintang advocated a universal distribution of 20,000 yuan, which was not only unconstitutional but also required a debt of 230 billion yuan. If they really had to rely on borrowing money to support themselves, they could simply pay each person 1 million yuan. "Everyone would be happy." However, the money will ultimately be borne by the children and grandchildren. He emphasized that universal cash should not only be based on how much money you get in front of you, but also the financial burden.
