Two Joes Build Back Nation Or Inflation?

NY Times says the Manchin-Biden Build Back Better accord has “potential to be a big deal” in fighting global warming but Fox notes how it’s “vastly pared back” to point of only adding fuel to inflation fire …

As Fox noted, “Manchin frustrated Democrats for months, consistently refusing to support party-line legislation that at one point [would have cost] $3 trillion” or up to $5 trillion by GOP estimates. Supposedly, Manchin had “shut down negotiations” late last year because, no matter how the Dem pols were slicing it, all versions of BBB were “inflationary”. Somehow, the old Joe convinced the West Va Joe that a new multi-billion infrastructure, Obamacare extensions & Green New Deal spend, plus a tax increase on big corporations, was going to REDUCE inflation.

And, I have a Saudi oasis in West Virginia I want to sell the two Joes.
