    The math should frighten every American. The problem is, most Americans don't even think about it. They just see they are getting free shit and cheer.

    ^Dumbass didn't read the math. Here it is again for leftist dumbasses who are math and thought challenged:

    $3.5 trillion, which will actually be $5 trillion when the dust settles, divided by 55,885,112 is $62,628,486 MILLION, that's right, MILLION for every tax payer. The notion that there is no cost can only be expressed by morons, liars or outright criminally insane. If we look at the actual costs, somewhere around $5 trillion, the number for each tax paying American becomes $89,818,207.

    In other words dumbasses on the left; you could tax all the rich people in the US at 100% and it wouldn't pay for itself for decades. THINK snowflakes THINK!

    By the way, corporations do not pay taxes knuckleheads. They COLLECT them. ALL their costs are passed on to the buyers of their goods and services. In other words, idiots like YOU are paying them every time you buy something or hire out for services. Dumbass.

    I don't read "right wing crap," nor do I watch it. I see what's going on, the wanted ads on posters in front of businesses, ads on my radio stations and ads in the local paper. There are will-train jobs advertised on my local rock & roll radio station starting out at over $20.. an hr, full benefits and vacation starting on day one. What does following politics have to do with that?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Once again, the math:

    $62,628,486 MILLION, that's right, MILLION for every tax payer. The notion that there is no cost can only be expressed by morons, liars or outright criminally insane. If we look at the actual costs, somewhere around $5 trillion, the number for each tax paying American becomes $89,818,207.

    Most likely true. ROI needs to be only around 2% and the bill has paid for itself. I guess first grade economics is just another class that Truth Detector failed.

    First, let's examine the idea that you can increase spending $3.5 trillion and not have costs associated with it. How is that even possible? The statement itself, other than being a massive lie, is asinine on it's merits. These people aren't merely liars, they are corrupt dishonest anti-American criminals.

    Secondly, some simple math attached to this. According to the IRS, the number of returns were 143,295,160 in 2020. 61% of those tax returns had ZERO tax liability. That suggests that 55,885,112 Americans are carrying the burden of this bloated Federal bureacracy.

    $3.5 trillion, which will actually be $5 trillion when the dust settles, divided by 55,885,112 is $62,628,486 MILLION, thats right, MILLION for every tax payer. The notion that there is no cost can only be expressed by morons, liars or outright criminally insane. If we look at the actual costs, somewhere around $5 trillion, the number for each tax paying American becomes $89,818,207.

    Let these numbers sink in for a moment. It is unfathomable that we have a political party in this country throwing around trillions as if it were a mere number and claiming there is no cost associated with it. Mind numbing lame and stupid.

    White House chief of staff tells Wall Street titans $3.5 trillion spending plan will ‘cost zero’

    White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain on Wednesday claimed in front of an audience of Wall Street titans that the Democrats’ $3.5 trillion spending bonanza would “cost zero.”

    He said that’s because the proposal already has a plan to fund its wish list, which includes a huge increase in social spending and so-called green spending.

    “We have found a way to pay for every part of the spending with taxes,” Klain said in front of an audience of financial industry poohbahs at the annual SALT conference in New York. “The net cost of ‘Build Back Better’ is zero,” he said of the White House’s plan.

    Appears "truthie" never heard of the included plan to raise corporate tax along with eliminating many existing deductions and loopholes, guess his right wing sources forgot to include that part

    Well, there you have it. That's what they were doing all this time in Area 51, making up a newfangled bill that spends trillions that has no cost.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    If ROI exceeds borrowing costs, there is no cost. No aliens, magic, or voodoo needed. It's econ 101.

    Basing it on magic "ROI" numbers does not make a zero cost bill reality. The government is infamous for its poor economic predictions used to support whatever pet project they want you to believe is "free".
