Despite what they are saying, everybody will pay more taxes. We are already paying a dollar more for gasoline since Joe took office. Inflation is eating more of our money every day.
Only $1.2T of the bill is for actual infrastructure – roads, bridges, trains, clean water, power grids, internet access, etc. If the dems would allow that part to stand alone it would pass with a supermajority. It was negotiated with bi-partisan support, after all. But that package is dead because Pelosi and Schumer, et al, have declared that deal is DOA unless the additional $2.5 T package, which includes free community college, free pre-school, free biden bumper stickers, etc.
So if you’re PO’d that the infrastructure bill isn’t moving, you can’t blame repubs this time. They will vote for it. It’s being held hostage by the left unless they get their way on the non-infrastructure stuff in the larger bill.

If there are no tax cuts for Friends of the Fat Orange Clown then they don’t consider it readable.

Well, if we hadn’t put off the necessary work for so long. And if we hadn’t given all our money to the ultra rich and corporations.

Yes I’m against jobs and upgrading our country. I’d rather spend the money in the middle East. The hell with us.

This would be funny if it weren’t so tragic for the country.

Better than the 3.5 trillion tax gift tiny gave to billionaires and millionaires. Has anything trickled down from that yet?

It would’ve been easy to lift if it weren’t for all the leftist Pork and Bull-Doo in it.
