Because now when someone wants to actually do

something about covid about the economy about climate change and renewable energy about infrastructure about minimum wage we suddenly worry about how much will be spent. After four years of massive tax breaks for those who didn't need them. We now have to listen to how wrong it is to give stimulus to those who may not need it. After wasting millions on a useless ineffective wall we now have to explain why we need to build roads and bridges and invest in new energy sources and prospective new jobs. You know the drill but sadly we again have to fight with some from our own party as well as republicans to get what 85 million of us voted for. Again unless we take bold governing steps we will be going uphill AGAIN. What is it with these people ?

Interest rates are so low, there was never a better time to operate on credit. And it’s not spending, like they always wanna call it, it’s investment
