Exactly! ....If they’re touting this as a victory for Biden we can with certainty know it’s bad for the American people. Abd there’s nothing about that which could be called a “Budget”....it’s all spend spend spend!...and take take take!

And the really sad part is that those on welfare still won’t be paying. The ones paying now will just have to pay more. I guess those on welfare will start to pay when the system collapses. They’ll realize socialism wasn’t such a great idea.
