    It could have been worse. $750B vs $3.5T. They did say the 15% minimum corporate tax would pay for it, but I call bullshit. We’ll see…

    So the price of everything just went up at least 15%.

    Thanks, Joe Dementia and Joe Caved.

    I wouldn't go that far. They did extend the affordable care act which is the only entitlement I think is in it.

    Hopefully Medicare will actually negotiate prescription drug costs. Doubt it

    $300B for green energy, whatever. It's stupid. Solar isn't dependable and the panels are fragile as fuck. Electric vehicles are great on the west because the electricity is hydro electric. In the east, electricity is ran on coal. So the country is saving vehicle carbon emissions, but also increasing coal emissions. Looks like a wash to me. Great investment smh

    Wish it hadn't happened, but good god, could it have been much worse.

    Either he caved or maybe he got whatever he wanted. Manchin made all the shitlibs big mad, he's really been in the news. I wonder what happened to Sinema? No one's been following her into the restroom lately.

    He isn't up for reelection until 2026. Maybe he decided he is going to retire and decided that not being hated by his fellow democrats in Washington was worth phucking over West Virginia and the country. If he runs, deep red West Virginia would be a tough run for him with any quality republican candidate.

    It’s nothing more than money laundering for the Democrats…govt funds green groups and they kick back a bunch of $$$ to the campaigns.

    It’s the #BananaRepublic we live in.

    It will be used to fund whatever cheating scheme they've concocted for November.

    Or at his core he’s just another democrat.
