Biden wants to spend 2 trillion, I want even more.
Look at China, they have rail systems, bridges, sewages, airports, etc.
Instead we having rusting steel, crumbling roads, traffic jams, and sick/unhealthy people.
Instead of cities we have roadsides and parking lots.
Why not rebuild this country? But no, republicans say it is too expensive, that we should not invest in anything and allow multinational corporations to rob us blind and send all the jobs and capital to east asia.
Why are republicans always for the destruction of this country? War, tax breaks for multinational corporations, free trade, crumbling infrastructure, suburban sprawl, soy farming, everything bad comes from republicans.

Even amnesty was a republican idea (Reagan).
Lol you really think the $2 trillion is going towards infrastructure?
From my understanding only about 5% or even less of the bill is for actual infrastructure. Dems like to add their agenda into these bills...by now you know how they are.
I maybe wrong. Yet the legislative portion of republicans do not necessarily represent the citizen who identify as republican .
So basically 10 million citizen republicans may not support this over abundant use of funds to dump into our infrastructure.
I'm not self identified or recorded under a main political party. The infrastructure plan is great in theory if we had the actual resource to do it. We do not. Now is not the time to toss out more money. It's actually time to tighten our budget belt . Re balance and maybe when our stablization occurs we can revisit this investment. Otherwise we are bleeding out and not easing the pressures of debt compounding.
Again I'm not a republican , I'm a tax payer, community service individual . Yet willing to give an outsiders opinion.
Oh they are all for it and more spending when they are in office. But once a Democrat is president you can watch them do a 180 like they don’t think people will notice. Just goes to show that hypocrisy is a prerequisite to join the Republican Party these days.
Because Republicans understand wasteful spending is what Democrats are known for.
Take that money and secure the southern border during a pandemic is a bigger priority.
Imagine if a restaurant turns down remodeling the place and upgrading the equipment to attract more customers, increase price, and reduce the wait time for customers; but instead use the money to build a fence so the customers from next door's retail shop cannot park on their side of the parking lot.

As if this is a Democrat only problem. Happens across the board and stifles any kind of speed at which bills go through congress.
I'm sure, like term limits, a bill which aims to stop all those extras stuffed into other bills would be popular with the public, but would never come to pass thanks to all the lobbying and corporate interests involved.
