Real Biden Bill Be Damned Build Back D-Day Looms

As the Dems steamroll their Build Back Better bill through the House they own, the WSJ reminds “The Real Biden Bill: At Least $4.6 Trillion”, thanks to DC Swamp accounting tricks & slight of hand. So, ball is now in Senate’s court. The politicians’ disrespect for taxpayers is tiring, but let’s consider the editors’ take one more time on how “Democrats have disguised the real cost of their government blowout”:

“The Congressional Budget Office on Thursday released its ‘official’ cost estimates for the House tax & entitlement bill, but don’t believe it. The CBO gnomes aren’t lying about a 10-yr deficit estimated of $367 billion. They’re obliged to score the bill under rules that Democrats have rigged with multiple tricks that disguise the real cost by trillions of dollars. [That is] Democrats phase out the biggest programs in the bill while paying for them with 10 years of tax increases. They phase-in other programs & off-load costs to the states. The Penn Wharton Budget Model estimates the House bill would cost nearly $4.6 trillion over 10 years if temporary provisions are made permanent, as most will be.”

Will the Democratic-controlled Senate now follow Joe & Nancy in lock step fashion? The WSJ notes several “moderates” besides Joe Manchin & Kyrsten Sinema are “hiding” behind them yet are likewise “concerned” about the inflationary House plan. Maybe believe it when you see it on the coming D-Day?
