    Default Build Back Better Fails America

    The Democrats’ Build Back Better Act is a weak piece of legislation that doesn’t even begin to address the sweeping issues facing American families. Every iteration of this bill has failed to address domestic needs like the housing crisis, universal healthcare, living wages and climate change.

    What began as a paltry bill has now been gutted beyond recognition. Spending has been slashed in half, dropping from $3.5 trillion to $1.5-2 trillion, and eliminating what minorly effective policies it had. What remains is a shell of ineffective, corporate and temporary crumbs.

    The mainstream media and the Democrats pointing to Senators like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema for obstruction of this toothless bill is just a distraction from who really pulls the shots.

    The finger-pointing from both Democrats and Republicans serves to mask the fact that their typical band-aid legislation stems from the real party that rules Capitol Hill — the corporate party.

    Every single member of Congress toes the corporate line. Gone are the days of demanding Medicare for all, housing as a human right, and a federal jobs guarantee. Forgotten are the fights for working infrastructure, college for all, and a Green New Deal. They’re just like every other politician, promises every campaign season that goes forgotten the moment they have the power to make change.

    Millions of American voters are changing their ballots to independent and the majority are sick and tired of the status quo and caricature representation.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    3.5 trillion= " what began as a paltry bill" Some of these Libtard writers are something else, how they try to frame things.

    3.5 trillion/paltry....WTF? Absurd.

    Regressives are never happy, nothing is ever good enough, nor will it ever be that is baked in.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Perhaps it was a weak bill. Can’t argue with that. But it was a COMPROMISE bill. The best that could be achieved given the opposition.

    Third parties have come and gone and all have failed. But, go for it, dude!

    Good. The Big Bucks Blunder is a complete non-necessity to this country. It can't die soon enough.

    First the causes of the problems have to be identified correctly.

    Legalized bribery and insider trading in Congress, municipalities charging too much for taxes, insurance lobbyists bribing comptrollers to raise premiums every year when they shouldn't. Redundant Federal government agencies that do nothing. Government employee unions that should not be.

    They aren't new, and I think they merged with the DEMOCRATS already to form a coalition
