The infrastructure bill that just passed had wide public support which explains why it garnered bi-partisan votes.

The Build Back Better plan also polls positively, as most Americans are certainly on board with its framework and seeing the mega-rich pay their fair share in taxes. The dems are governing with a razor slim majority, and there are divisions within that majority that have their own policy concerns and interests - or in the case of Manchin and Sinema, self interests..

Regardless, the BBB deal will likely be hammered out before Thanksgiving.

So sayeth the "CHUD" black pot!!

You getting a free meal benefits no one. Building and repairing infrastructure benefits everyone. Clean energy benefits everyone. Family and medical leave benefits everyone. Affordable child care benefits everyone. Affordable drug prices benefits everyone.

I edited your post down to only one bit of foolishness.
I would never agree to someone buying my lunch everyday, and I don’t know a single person who would. I also don’t know a single person that would make that offer unconditionally. I do know plenty of people who would help out a friend in time of need.

davew...last Tuesday's results certainly seem to indicate that this may be reality.
