Two things about spending bills

Washington DC

Description

The veteran's 'burn pit' bill: Democrats are trying to add $400 Billion to the bill that has NOTHING to do with helping veterans. That's why Republicans are holding it up. If the Dems drop all their useless, unrelated bullshit, the bill will pass in a heartbeat. The 'New Green Deal' bill. Joe Manchin finally caved into Democrat's demands and put his stamp on another HUGE tax and spend bill. GET THIS: Government spending and higher taxes are the Number One reason for our current inflation spiral. The Democrat's solution? Spend MORE MONEY !!! -- Especially spend it on useless, ineffective 'green projects' !! Just what we need right now: trying to reduce OUR pollution, while IGNORING the pollution coming from China and India. By the way: China and India produce far more pollution that the USA and for every coal-fired power plant we shut down, they build three new ones. Energy equals money, so we are hurting our own economy, and letting China and India boost theirs. Apparently, we're the only ones who can save the Earth, because our government is willing to do damage to our own economy to get it done. Yes. It's that stupid. We'll get this shit figured out in November.
