George W. Bush brought us the war, though many Democrats had voted for the authorization to use military force. And I didn’t say they’re a seismic changes. But even Biden’s plan yesterday was better than what we had before. I just hope he goes much further.

So Republicans who brought us the Iraq war and a $2T Tax cut that will never pay for itself are starting to complain about deficit spending, now that the Democrats want to do one damn thing to actually help people. Laugh loudly, people! (And read @StephanieKelton)

I agree with you about being grateful & about giving them a chance to get started. But this was an official announcement and it speaks to things that actually don’t take time. It speaks to a general governing philosophy and the time to express our opinion about it is now.

“Uncertainty in the markets?” Isn’t it time to evolve our thinking on that one? The markets often respond very positively to situations that represent the greatest destruction to the hopes and opportunities of the average American. Like now!

It is huge & it’s important but not enough. Nothing but a massive infusion of economic hope & opportunity into the life of the average American will be enough to save this country from calamity. We need to go full FDR & demanding it isn’t negative or unsupportive of the president

Not anti-VAX, and neither did Kamala Harris. Are you suggesting that because I’m not a government official I shouldn’t have an opinion about policy? There is an anti-democracy position for you. Citizens leaving everything to other people is how we got into this mess.

Yes, but when I was a kid I didn’t get kudos from my mother for cleaning half my room. In the richest nation in the world child poverty should not exist.

Now that Dems have both Houses & the White House, they should repeal the 2017 $2T tax cut that gave $.83 of every dollar to the richest corporations and individuals (put back in the middle class cuts). No fundamental course-correction will occur unless we address unfair taxation.
