Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Joe Biden's $2 Trillion Infrastructure Plan 'Needs to Be Way Bigger'
[BREITBART] President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. The very model of probity....
’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan, dubbed the American Jobs Plan, is not sufficient and "needs to be way bigger," Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez
Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore...
(D-NY) said on Tuesday prior to the proposal’s formal unveiling.

Biden is outlining his $2 trillion plan on Wednesday, which devotes roughly $174 billion to the electric vehicle market, $115 billion to modernize bridges, highways, and roads, $50 billion in semiconductor manufacturing and research, $25 billion in airports, $10 billion investment in enforcement to "ensure employers are providing workers with good jobs," $10 billion investment for Civilian Climate Corps, and more, as Breitbart News highlighted.

Ocasio-Cortez, however, does not believe it is sufficient, as the $2 trillion proposal spreads out over the next decade.

"This is not nearly enough. The important context here is that it’s $2.25T spread out over 10 years," she said. "For context, the COVID package was $1.9T for this year *alone,* with some provisions lasting 2 years."

#1 Needs to be 'Way Bigger'

Behold the value of a degree from Boston University: a facility with complex, advanced terms from econometrics and public finance such as "way"

I guess you all know AOC used to be a waitress and part-time bartender in her previous life before being elected to Congress. In that life she must have seen it all, serving the public, mixing drinks, giving advise, taking care of people in their times of personal trouble (thats what good bartenders do).
She is trying to 'help' us now, "need to spend more money on infrastructures, way more than a paltry two trillion dollars." ($2,000,000,000,000.00)...Her advise is enough to make you want to drink... AOC in her off time:

#3 Biden unveils $2TN infrastructure plan to 'lift middle class finger' with tax raid on rich: President slams Trump's tax cuts and claims America's top 1% 'got $4TN richer during pandemic'

#4 I used to respect Boston University immensely and when their president at the time, John Silber, ran for Mass. governor, I did phone banks for his campaign for a few months. Now, this twit effectively ruined that reputation for me. I guess that's a microcosm of how bad higher education has fallen in that span.
