are using propaganda with the "cost" of Build Back Batter" but they gladly voted for 2 trillion plus dollars for tax cuts for the rich.

Propaganda has blinded working folks. The Build Back Better cost, which is paid for is over 10 years, while the tax cuts for the rich was over 2 years and is permanent, it keeps on costing money.

As I said, common sense and critical thinking have disappeared.
