Less than (9) years left to the WEF’s Great Reset. Considering we are supposed to own nothing and be happy, who is going to wind up with a monopoly on the deck chairs of the Titanic? The politically connected, such as Blackrock? Maybe Bill Gates? Though he seems to be content with acquiring farm land, though, instead of homes.
Saw a headline the other day, that some republicans wanted Biden to increase military spending by, i think it was, 25 billion dollars. One hand tries to subtract while adding at the same time.

The quicker they pass these boondoggles, the quicker we get to the great reset, where all debt is wiped out and we start over. No need to drag it out and cause more consternation.

If it were going to pass it would have passed already. This is grandstanding. Sometimes I feel that we are in 15th Century Italy and not in 21st Century America.
Yes, they have their “rotating villains” Manchin and Sinema to point to.
“The primary tactic in this game is Villain Rotation. They always have a handful of Democratic Senators announce that they will be the ones to deviate this time from the ostensible party position and impede success, but the designated Villain constantly shifts, so the Party itself can claim it supports these measures while an always-changing handful of their members invariably prevent it.” – Glenn Greenwald
After the 2022 elections, if they still have a majority in the Senate they will have Mark Kelly of Arizona switch places with Sinema, and perhaps Tester will swap with Manchin. Of course, if they lose the Senate, none of this will be necessary anyway.
We have the Fed monetizing debt so why does it matter. I’m sure this will all end well. Well for some but not for most.

I’m still digesting “conservative” trump’s “deficits don’t matter” (after promising a balanced budget, but hey, when has he ever told the truth!). But our last balanced budget was Bill Clinton’s and we’re going to hit “TILT” with this ballooning national debt. If/when interest rates spike and this Fed is toast and then US either defaults on it’s debt, stops endless warring, cuts Soc Sec or deeply devalues the dollar.
Enough Dems are blinking at this price tag to radically rightsize the plan. Eventually some bridges and tunnels will collapse but that can be fixed with emergency funding like the wars
Right spelling, wrong grammar, but hey, we can’t all be perfect like you.

Pass the bill. And to fund it, either print the money, or if you don’t want to print it, levy taxes. And of course, when you have people with hundreds of billions of dollars and corporations worth trillions of dollars, you know whom to tax (Hint: It is NOT the ones that cannot afford even a $600 car repair expense!)
