    Build back better was last year and it did not pass. This was the inflation reduction act and a short summary is just what the opening post gave you.

    What just passed was not build back better.

    Since it allows Medicare and insurance to bargain for drug prices it could affect all drug prices and you are right, that increase in taxes should have gone down to about $200,000.

    Why do the democrats hate Americans ? Why would ANY American vote for one ? THey hurt every demographic except the 1%.

    Think about that in November.
    What a stupid comment. One lie after the next.

    She can't, goes without saying. For a start, if wind and solar are so fucking cheap then why do they still need huge subsidies? Moreover, why has so little been given to hydrogen filling stations compared to EV charging points? Just when you're on the cusp of a recession, why would you shovel more fuel onto the fire and create more inflation?

    You are a disappointment to humanity. Go back under your bridge you useless troll.

    What was your point again?
