Joe Biden is a puppet. Bernie Sanders and his “progressive” apparatchiks are clearly pulling the strings. Pro tip: Whenever you hear a Leftist use the word “invest”, think “waste/spend” because it’s much more accurate.
“Even more politically germane than these remarks from the two big-blue states is what Joe Bidensaid from his Delaware porch: “We have an opportunity not just to rebuild the economy but to transform it.” That return-to-normalcy line that got him the nomination was mostly bunk. Mrs. Pelosi’s $3 trillion spending bill is best understood not as a bailout, but a bail-in. It would be a nationalization of the progressive blue-state model of unconstrained spending.
For the past several decades, that model has had two main components, neither of which their state tax bases can support: pension and health benefits negotiated with public-sector unions and a welfare state, principally Medicaid, which by the third law of Democratic thermodynamics can expand to infinity.
Someone’s gotta pay for it, and that someone under the Pelosi plan may soon be the rest of the nation’s taxpayers who don’t live in California, New York, New Jersey or Illinois and who have never voted to take on this unsustainable fiscal burden. Residents of all four states have been fleeing for years. The reigning theory of Democratic governance regards the loss of productive private capacity as irrelevant to their goals.”
