“The corporate cronies trying to make it sound as if failure of BBB is going to hurt America.”
If the CEO making up the Chamber of Commerce would announce they are together engaged in a rush 5 year plan to rebuild US manufacturing supply chains, using 21st century technology, the stock market and the economy would soar for the next 2 decades. Capital investment across the US building factories and infrastructure to support the renewal of manufacturing would cause a boom. Employment would also respond as higher wages attract some of the 100 million non-working working age Americans back into the employment marketplace.
If we committed to rebuilding the US as a formidable manufacturing economic power, we would see the 6-10% annual growth rates of our economy China experienced over the past 30 years.
