Bidens 7 trillion dollar plan to rebuild economy
The British tabloid didn't off a whole lot of info, but it sounds like long term plan for :

- Infrastructure
- Education
- Health care
- Housing

Sounds pretty vague, which is to be expected at this point.

I hope Biden plans to pay for it out of his own pocket, as otherwise, I don't see where the money would come from. China nearly owns us now, so maybe Biden wants to make the sale complete!

Trump has us on a path to where we could afford to rebuild, but Biden plans to destroy all the work that Trump has done. If Biden/Harris perform as expected, I won't have to worry about a Democrat getting in office again in my lifetime! Two or three decades Democrat-free.

That's pretty much as I see it.
Biden will spend huge amounts on unused high-speed rail, research into the mating habits of butterflies and sling money around willy-nilly like he did when Obama told us Biden would be "focused like a laser" on the trillion dollars Obama got. Then it turned out shovel ready projects were "not quite shovel ready" and Obama just laughed it off.


It'll be good for 2022 and 2024.

The economy is fine... we just need to be allowed to work at full throttle.

I wonder how they will get 7 trillion passed when they won't have enough votes in the House or the Senate, seeing how they failed miserably in an attempt at a blue wave?

If Creepy Uncle Joe has a $7 trillion plan the only thing it'll do is waste $7 trillion. He never had a plan in 47 years in Conress that did anything other than line his pockets.

Nailed it...stuck the landing! Biden-Harris won't be able to pass the butter, during their disappointing stint...

-Republican controlled Sentate, plus Joe Manchin

-Conservative SCOTUS

-Conservative Federal Appeals Judges

-Republican control of Governorships

-Republican control of Statehouses

-Dems meagher 7-seat lead in the house

-Moderate Dems in the House have thrown down the gauntlet against progressive policy

-71 Million Trump voters

- <1/2 Dem voters voted FOR Biden...they voted against Trump, so Biden lacks their approval or trust

"Biden's Build Back Better economic recovery plan would spend over $7 trillion on initiatives such as infrastructure, which includes the creation of 10 million clean-energy jobs, and on housing, education, economic fairness and health care."

10 million clean - energy jobs...that sounds like a whole lot of malarkey there for sure. Why didn't he speak up about this when we lost millions of jobs due to offshoring and outsourcing when he was Obama's VP ? Why wait until now ? So, what will these clean - energy jobs be ? What will the requirements be ? What will they pay ? Will they be 6 figure jobs or no better than being the greeter at Walmart ?

What is economic fairness mean ? Just curious, and how does dumping money into it do anything ?
