WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Sunday the country was still in a “deep hole” with millions of lost jobs but that President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion relief plan could generate enough growth to restore full employment by next year.

Republican senators argued that Biden’s proposal was too expensive and they cited criticism from Larry Summers, a treasury secretary under President Bill Clinton, that passage of the measure could run the risk of triggering runaway inflation.

Whoever is the Treasury Secretary appointed by Grandpa Joe is a political hack and will say whatever it is necessary to please her boss.

No thanks to Mike Lee, the Republican Sebastian, it’s Democrat Allies, led by Harris.

The globalist US Congress main job and goal was to replace the US middle class with foreign trash Indians and others.

Remember when Trump stopped this nonsense last year by EO?

The Senate Republicans placed two ads in national newspapers begging Trump to reconsider?

"Biden's plan could restore full employment"

I totally believe it. They just have to emulate Cuba where 10 or 20% of the population is employed to spy 24x7 on the entire rest of the population for suspected Thought Crimes and other nefarious activity.

Read an article once that every hallway door & stairway door & external door in multi-family housing (which is where the overwhelming majority of Cubans live) has a watcher sitting with a clipboard and a list of all residents and columns for times when they leave or arrive. Strangers they don't recognize must show an ID and state their biz & who they're visiting.

Full employment for all!

Full employment for a decreasing number of people unless he intends to make everyone government employees by nationalizing all industries.

A monkey could spend this much money and generate full employment.

Yellen: Take a bow.
