Which is why when McCarthy meets with Branden today at 3:15 on the debt ceiling he needs to demand significant cuts, or it’s the same ole same ole.
The ENTIRE multi-trillion “COVID Relief” was a scam driven by the totally needless shutdown of the economy. They should investigate why the pandemic happened and why the hysterical government reaction resulted in trillions being given away for no good reason, igniting very high inflation. Our citizens (and especially retirees and pensioners) are absolutely hit hardest when government causes inflation.
That is the underlying issue, not how some people gamed the system to steal some of the give-away money.
Leave it to Congress to ignore the real issue and focus on some trivial tangential issue.
Congress is but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets its hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. These are tales
Told by idiots, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
