Politico: Biden's domestic agenda near collapse -- and Democrats know it

 

A trillion here, a trillion there, and sooner or later people start noticing the math doesn’t add up. Enough people have noticed this about Joe Biden’s expansive and expensive domestic agenda to put the entire enterprise on the verge of collapse. And Democrats know it, Politico reports, but are too torn to stop what appears to be inevitable:

On top of everything else, Biden and his team have mismanaged the expectations game.

 

Why they didn’t spend time with moderates to figure out the top end of their limit on spending is anyone’s guess, but apparently the White House thought they could just buffalo Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema while only holding 50 Senate seats and a four-vote swing in the House.

 

It’s almost akin to going all in with a pair of deuces and ignoring the other show cards on the table. Any failure here will look all the more acute because of it, and it will exacerbate the internecine tensions within the Democratic coalition that already exist when Congress ends up producing nothing at all.

There's an Aesop's Fable About What the Democrats Are Set to Do to Themselves

 

 

Earlier on Sunday evening, my colleague Nick Arama wrote a piece about Joe Biden and the Democrats’ attempts to pull a fast one on the American people, whether on the Sunday shows or through slyly worded social media posts. They are claiming that not only does their boondoggle of an infrastructure plan contain spending items that the majority of Americans of every stripe and creed say they agree with, but that it will end up costing zero dollars.

 

After reading Nick’s piece and mulling over what the Dems are about to do to themselves in the coming hours and days, I remembered a tale my parents taught my sister and me to read many years ago, while we were growing up in former House Speaker John Boehner’s district. In the book pictured above, the story is called “The Dog And His Reflection.” And it goes like this:

RICHARD FERNANDEZ: The Collapse of Biden’s World.

 

The fate of large parts of the U.S. economy consequently depends not on regulatory actions in Washington but on bureaucratic decisions in China. The global world that Joe Biden had hoped to inherit is falling apart right under him, like a comedy car shedding its parts as it rattles down the road.

 

As Niall Stanage of the Hill put it, “President Biden’s biggest vulnerability isn’t any single issue. It’s the risk that he could be seen as losing control of events.”

 

The dissolution of the landscape means the Biden administration isn’t plagued by any one malady anymore but by multiple organ failure.

 

At a time when America and the West need firm and imaginative leadership, we got Joe Biden.

Biden Bizarrely (and Falsely) Claims His $3.5 Trillion Spending Agenda Has a Price Tag of ‘Zero.’

 

https://fee.org/articles/biden-bizarrely-and-falsely-claims-his-35-trillion-spending-agenda-has-a-price-tag-of-zero/

 

This wasn’t just a verbal slip. In a tweet, the president reiterated the claim that “My Build Back Better Agenda costs zero dollars.” 

 

 

Biden’s allies in the mainstream media are pushing a similar narrative. Appearing on CNN, Washington Post opinion columnist Catherine Rampell argued that “The bill itself will not cost $3.5T in the sense it will be entirely, or at least partly, paid for. So the actual cost, in terms of deficits, will be smaller than that, perhaps zero, although I think that’s unlikely." Also on CNN, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal said that “This is a zero-dollar bill because it's all going to be paid for with taxes on the wealthiest corporations and the wealthiest individuals.”

Chamber of Commerce Calls Biden Plan 'Existential Threat,' Businesses Already Revolting Against IRS Provision

 

0724cd90-b87f-4eca-8051-aac60d587f43-860

 

 

One of the ways that Joe Biden says he will “pay” for the trillions of dollars of spending in his budget reconciliation plan is to impose more taxes and funnel more money and power to the IRS to go after people. Among the provisions? That banks would be required to give the IRS information on any accounts with more than $600.

 

So that would mean virtually every American and every business’ bank account would be open to the IRS. Now, given how we saw the IRS used during the Obama-Biden administration and the intrusive autocratic nature of the present Biden administration, does anyone really feel comfortable with the thought that the government would have that much increased power over us? This isn’t a situation where you’re talking about probable cause to look into account, this is a general rule applied to everyone.

 

Now, more than 40 trade associations are balking at this provision and they’re demanding Congress stop it.

Under Biden no one earning less then $400K a year will see a tax increase. That sounds more then fair. 

 

 

You have a history of intelligent posts.

 

You simply cannot believe this.

 

You must be trolling.

You must be the most ignorant person on this site.  What do you think that milionaires do with their money?  What do you think corporations do with it?  They invest,  build things, buy things, employ people.  They pay out dividends to investors that do the same.  Money right into other Americans pockets.  Keep watching CNN and demonstrating your abject ignorance of how economies work.

Here's Why Biden Is so Desperate to Sell the Lie That His Plan Costs 'Zero Dollars'

by Nick Arama

 

As we previously reported, Joe Biden is going all-in with this ridiculous claim, suddenly, that his $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation bill costs “zero dollars.” He wasn’t alone in trying to push this claim. As we pointed out, he had Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) parroting the claim. Now, other Democrats have jumped aboard the narrative train including Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), the head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. Rep. Alan Lowenthal (D-CA) signed on board as well. Here’s White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki trying to sell the same claim. But, of course, what would a Democratic agenda narrative be without help from their buddies
