President Joe Biden has introduced a gargantuan spending bill ostensibly aimed at shoring up and expanding America’s crumbling infrastructure, but as usual, there are a lot of things in the measure completely unrelated to ‘infrastructure.’
To be sure, the measure would spend hundreds of billions on roads, bridges, airports, and so forth. In fact, a Washington Post analysis found that the bill earmarks $650 billion for those kinds of projects.
But again, that’s just $650 billion out of $2.2 trillion. So — if this is an ‘infrastructure’ spending bill, where is the other two-thirds of the money (that we don’t have) going? More
Wasn’t Obama’s boondoggle supposed to fix roads, bridges, airports, and so forth?
Don’t forget 10% for “The Big Guy”.

Those are the “shovel ready” projects that Joe Biden was put in charge of in 2016. That money was siphoned off and redirected to fund a leftist wish list of extravagant bullshit.
Nancy didn’t get her train in the last bill so they needed another one.
I remember a story about Obama sending money to a non existing zip code. Wish I could find that. Nevertheless it went to something other than infrastructure! Why do these people want to destroy our great country? Dang communists!
“Infrastructure” has been the political means for starting social programs that never end. If we spent every dollar that has been stolen for infrastructure on infrastructure we’d have roads and bridges made of gold.
Look, I’ve only been here since late 1968. It took me a while to fully understand the system we are in. We are the prostitute, at least at our end of the bargain. Lots of reading…We posses as a nation, all of the hallmarks of Mercantilism. For starters, one role of pre 1965 quarters (which is ten bucks)is worth $100.00 today.
How many corporations are signing onto socialism. How much has K-street stolen you’re representation, and continues to do so with even more efficiency.
I keep telling people the only ones really peddling socialism are the rich. Deer in headlights.
Robo Joe Bama does not have the consent of the governed to tax or push legislation.
The elephants look like a bunch of stupid Jack Asses.

They are the self appointed ruling class, the rest of us are what you get on the bottom of your shoes at the dog par.

The most obvious effect of the last so-called stimulus package was all the signs put up that said, ” Your Stimulus Dollars at work.”
It’s pretty clear President Asterisk is not involved in decision making and policy is under the direction of a new troika:
1. Previous President Jarrett 2. CallMeDr.Jill (or else!) and
3. Whoopie Goldberg. These policy gurus are referred to the “One Hundred” so named as the sum of their IQs.
…I bet the bill requires everything be built with a ramp or an elevator…NO STAIRS!

Q. “…Why do these people want to destroy our great country?”
A. “Here we may reign secure, and in my choyce
To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav’n”

“They are the self appointed ruling class, the rest of us are what you get on the bottom of your shoes at the dog par.”
The elite + Corporations(Which Republican falsely ascribe to individualism is total nonsense) steal your representation on K-street and otherwise, to be “it’s” representation in Congress while paying lip service to the subsidizers. That’s where the media comes into play. To gaslight the shit out of everyone.
Well if we go into a battle with Russia I say we send all transgender soldiers to the fight. Biden’s Hero’s.
Every time money changes hands they get a bite, just like Mexico. Trump got in the way.
