Have the concerned moderates rolled out of bed yet? Please explain why this is a good idea. TIA.

Or please explain why this is needed on top of the 'infrastructure' spending? Heck, why stop there, why not spend 20 trillion bucks next year and just buy some more printing presses with part of it?

No more mean tweets.

stock market is up.

Those ****ers don't care as long as money is being borrowed and printed. Idiots! Schiller index is just shy of where it was during the dot com bust!

Of course it's up.... cash is basically worth zero right now. People are buying anything to hedge that.

Just give every American their own printing press. Far cheaper.

George Floyd is a hero for doing this!

These mother****ers learned from the best. They obviously hate America.

Maybe he is going with the plan to inflate his way out of debt.

Sounds like something NYTimes Economist Paul Krugman would invent.

---

Didn't Krugman win a Nobel?

Also, aren't we mostly in debt to China? Maybe printers go brrr and we just hand a few cargo containers full of cash to the Chicoms and walk away?

Or, what's most likely happening is that we are just getting more in debt to the Chicoms and the Big Guy is going to get his 10%.

For the 40th time...... gold and silver for the win! Can't print those!

"Thank you George Floyd, for sacrificing yourself..." - Nancy P.

If you're wealthy - your wealth most likely grew by 16% (S&P 500) or higher since November

I believe real inflation was somewhere in that ballpark, so the wealthy are more or less the same - not better or worse off



Wages for anyone other than the bottom 10% haven't changed, so that inflation has lowered the expected standard of living by about 15% for all those who live on their wages


The elitists do not see anything wrong with this

Come on, Man! Biden's going to make us all multi-millionaires.

Only problem is you won't be able to buy a Ford Focus for less than $1M and you'll need $2000 to fill it with gas.

6% inflation is not good enough for these communists. They are obviously going for 12%.

Man, I miss both of those guys. Freakin brilliant.

I am just not sure why he is being so conservative....is $6T really enough?

I mean c'mon Joe....be a true leader and lets to $12T or more....we can really make a difference at $12T...even more at $20T....

This is the first use of "budget" word I have seen from the government in about 20 years.

It is a start, I guess.

It's time to resume calls for a Convention of States. It's incredibly clear that if the red states don't reign in this government it will destroy the entire global economy which will lead to death and destruction on a scale that's difficult to imagine.

100% this.

And here's the tough pill I predict we'll eventually have to swallow: Fundamentally, it will mean we have to go our own way... an end to the U.S. of A. as we know it today.

Oh, and it was just released that Biden's plan assumes all the tax increases he's asking for started in April. If that is agreed to then it's already too late to move your money around to try and mitigate.

Sorry ass m'fer.

How much of that $6T is going to the USA versus places like Israel and other massive wastes of Federal money?

I'm sure there's going to be a lot in there for Ukraine, or anybody else who might cut The Big Guy a few checks once he's out of office in 6 months.

And most important, that $6T probably doesn't include any money for the military and the wars that Biden-Harris is going to get us into. So add another $1T in top of that.

To put this in context total foreign aid from 2019 would represent 0.7% of the proposed budget. Really not significant enough to be discussing.

What is this for? Is this in addition to $2T infrastructure bill? Is this so they can package infrastructure and all the other BS they tried to stuff into original infrastructure bill?

It's for all of their socialist left wing policy changes they want to make.

The Republican counteroffer that has been released makes use of unspent funds from previous stimulus that was never spent and is much more focused on actual infrastructure. I'm sure theirs has some b.s. in it as well but nothing like Biden's since it is only $900B

How much is unspent from earlier appropriations? Do you know?

You remember how we ultimately caused the downfall of the Soviet Union by forcing them to spend so much money on defense that they couldn't afford to do anything else, and ultimately it was an economic collapse of the USSR that ended the empire, not a military loss?

Yeah...we are doing the same exact thing to ourselves right now. The sad part is that there isn't even any real outside influence causing it, just our own friggin stupidity. We are a heroin addict that is about to OD because we simply don't know better.

10% to the big guy

That money - be it 1% or 100% - is ours. Taxpayers.

It's damn sure worth discussion.

It would seem that none of them are border security dollars.

Your concern is the money we give to Israel?
