Get this.
$500B universal paid family and medical leave
$427B. Child care programs
$556B child tax credit (do the poor have more kids to get more money?)
$98B Child and dependent care tax credit
$285B Medicare, Dental, hearing and vision coverage
$310B Obamacare Expansion
Now get this: People earning $800K a year are eligible for $12,500 Elec vehicle credit (subsidy for the wealthy!!). A married couple making $150K a year or a couple making $400K are eligible for the expanded child tax credit!!! You fellers are spending our dollars big time. These couples ALSO get $1000/m paid leave!!!! And you wonder what Joe Manchin is harping about !??
Govt can't cover this and the rest of the fat, totalling $5T. Taxes are about to begin. The poor are the part of society who smoke the most. Cigs will go up $1/pack. It begins, taxing everyone, not just the ones over $400K. It will be hilarious to watch the congressional budget office as the as they try to make these numbers work. They can't.
BTW, none of these entitlements has a work requirement. You can get paid family leave for sitting with a neighbor who has the flu. And you do not have to be working.
Ladders of opportunity are disappearing. Your children will wonder, what in the hell? What have y'all done to our futures.
Unemployment is down to around 5%. The economy is doing well. Why do y'all feel like something that is not broken be fixed? Let's rebuild some bridges, etc, and everyone go to work. Doesn't that make sense? And why does Biden give subsidies to rich people, as shown above?, I noted a few weeks ago y'all went wild that Congress was giving all kind of subsidies to farmers, etc.
Geez o'Petey

I didn't hear "Y'all" sniveling about the this when Donald J Trump was running up the national debt by trillions, by lowering the tax rate on the 1%. In addition, investing money in our children, health coverage, and clean, renewable energy at the expense of billionaires, many of whom pay less than 5% in tax's is not such a horrible idea.

I assure you, our poor, abused billionaires will still be able to afford their multiple country club memberships, yachts, Rolls Royce's, and shopping trips to Tiffany's, Beverly Hills, and Park Avenue. 😢

How many trillions to warmongering and social media tycoons?

You Repubes love to quibble about hundreds of dollars each for a few million actually poor people - fifty percent of which you will claw back in poor-taxes - but when it comes to giving hundreds of times that amount to psychopaths in massive mansions, none of whom pay a cent of tax, you don't even bat an eyelid.

Your hypocrisy is too obvious.

Is that you, Sonhouse. It does get tiring. Surely you tired of him, but you seem to write like him. Let's relive yesterday.
This is a hell of a week in DC, you should devote your time to that to get sharp for future jousts.
The above leaves out about 100 great accomplishments of Trump, and you write it as if he, or someone in his place, should have been perfect for those 4 years. For example, no mention of the millions of new jobs or the better lives under his administration .
Aren't y'all a bit weary of writing about Trump? Biden is about to give us PLENTY to write about. His agenda is hanging in the balance. Looks like he missed his nap, he is on the way to read to us. Obama is now a speech writer!!!
Sorry that you guys (does that sound better, even though a girl is on this thread, I feel like I am leaving her out.....) wet your beds every nite about the rich people. I sure do like Amazon, though. And the jobs that yacht manufacturers create, and that the Rolls manufacturers create. But I hate it that people get rich and have a lot of money.

You hate it because people get rich. But you also hate when the subject of socialism comes up but hey, you are an avowed white nationalist so I can imagine why you would feel like that since you are fast becoming a political minority and THAT is why you push your blatantly racist scree.

You might want to sit down for a while.
You sound like you're getting dizzy.
