We are never going to rise above this, are we? Nothing we do is ever going to be enough, is it?
Whoda thunk it, a liberal criticizing a Black man.

You know, those things that define first word countries.
If history is correct you will see billions/trillions of dollars spent with very few results.

And who is going to head up all of this infrastructure building? Do they have a handle on where all of that money is going? Somehow I feel there is going to be a ton of waste and a lot of stolen funding/money. Well, a lot of Biden's friends will become wealthy anyway.

If you think all of this massive spending at one time is gonna do all of that you are sadly mistaken.
