The Big GuyBiden
...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem mschine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family...said Wednesday in Pittsburgh of his $2 trillion "American Jobs Plan." No freaking kidding: It’s half of his master plan to utterly remake the nation in the name of recovery from the pandemic.
America is reopening thanks to vaccines developed in record time, and the economy is all set to return to the pre-COVID boom. Rather than get government to get out of the way as everyone gets back to work, Biden aims to spend unprecedented sacks of cash to grow the government and let Democratic interest groups gorge.
Step Two, his "American Families Plan," drops in a few weeks with another $2 trillion in spending. This comes on top of his $1.9 trillion so-called "COVID relief" package — and the $4 trillion Congress OK’d last year, a quarter of it still unspent.
"This is the moment to reimagine and rebuild a new economy," the White House says. Why, other than the fact that Democrats think they can get away with it?
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said in February — before Biden’s first big bill passed — that the economy will reach its previous peak by mid-year, no new federal cash baths needed.
But then, Biden’s proposal isn’t about letting Americans get back to building their own lives. It’s not even actually an American Jobs Plan, it’s a con job to sell America on central planning.
As for the infrastructure that’s supposedly at the plan’s center: Even the White House doesn’t pretend that more than a third of the money would go for roads, bridges and so on, and it could be as little as 5 percent.
