One of the main reasons Sen. Joe Manchin said he could not vote for President Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" bill is his concern about inflation. Manchin is worried the bill would increase deficits and debt and fuel even more inflation, which is now rising faster than it has in 40 years. Manchin's concerns about inflation are confirmed by two recent studies. They show inflation costs the average U.S. household an incredible $5,000 a year.
