Republicans will claim they're not "actually" against it. They just have "concerns" about this or that...
Of course those concerns are cover for being against it.
Since it is a Biden initiative, Republicans will scream......Pork, Pork, Pork and vote against it
Thanks for the exampleExactly. I am ok with some infrastructure spending, but it must be on actual infrastrcure, not much of the non-infrastructure Biden and the Democrats want. Biden even tried to redefine the very definition of “infrastructure”. Like good little programmed lemmings, many democrats bought it.
Straight from the Communist News Network(CNN). How can this be considered infrastructure? If you want to argue it is needed, fine, but don’t throw it into this bill. This is the very definition of pork.
Home care services and workforce: $400 billion
Biden would provide $400 billion to bolster caregiving for aging and disabled Americans.His plan would expand access to long-term care services under Medicaid, eliminating the wait list for hundreds of thousands of people. It would provide more opportunity for people to receive care at home through community-based services or from family members.
It would also improve the wages of home health workers, who now make approximately $12 an hour. One in six live in poverty, the administration says. It would put in place an infrastructure to give caregiving workers the opportunity to join a union.
During his presidential campaign, Biden said he would devote $450 billion to allow more older Americans and their families to receive care at home or in their communities, as opposed to nursing homes and other institutions.
