McConnell likes big packages.
If you compromise with evil, you just get more evil....................
Trump would have been okay with 800 Billion. The difference is he would have directed the money to be spent for airports, walls, bridges, roads, not teachers’ unions and other things not ordinarily thought of as “infrastructure”.
THIS SOB REFUSED TO GIVE TRUMP AN INFRASTRUCTURE BILL THST WAS AN INFRASTRUCTURE BILL WHEN HE WANTED IT.
MCCONNELL SHOULD BE SENT PACKING BACK TO HIS BUDDIES IN PEKING
Well, it’s not like we didn’t see this coming.
Plan accordingly, FReepers!
Those selfish “conservatives!” How dare they only agree on 800 BILLION!
They define the feeding trough for the pigs in DC
800 billion. I’m all for it. Just show me all the projects that is in the bill, start and end dates, company running the projects and total cost of each project.
The public has the right to see what the projects are.
Cocaine Mitch is an “assistant democrat”. Always was, is and will forever be....just like that little Eddie Munster lookalike...Ryan.
They made a heckuva team and did all they could to hurt Trump.
The expiring infrastructure bill that Republicans passed and Obama signed in 2015 was for 61 billion a year, for 5 years (extended for a sixth by Trump).
On that basis saying 600 billion for 10 years is really just saying “let’s keep it the same as what we are already doing.”
It’s also not unreasonable to say that we have under-invested in surface transportation, so an increase there, plus some funding for broadband rollout getting to 800 is not really crazy.
They spend money like it’s nothing.
....And how much money the companies getting the contracts donated to which congressmen’s PACs.
Remember the Obozo’s $900 billion “shovel ready” infrastructure hill that the House and Senate passed? Unfortunately most of that money was looted by the DC criminal cabal and their cronies and now they’re back for more. No damned wonder this country is now broke. We can’t trust DC any longer to not loot any large pools of our money they create through deceptive legislation.
Why not STOP the extra unemployment benefits and the rest of the “covid” spending and use that for infrastructure.
Covid is past tense, it’s fading, we need to stop being ridiculous with the closures and have a national call to open up everything!
Covid is on the run: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailytrendscases
The rest of Biden's package is "social structure"...aka...government give away.
My sentiments exactly.
Him and Eddie Munster.
👍👍👍
Chyna Mitch.
