Biden's radical spending
Many thanks to Bob Oswald's Facts Matter column on April 18 for clarifying just how much infrastructure is in President Biden's proposed $2.3 trillion plan. So only 26% of the massive spending bill is going to true infrastructure, the rest being for radical left wish-list items that would only grow government control over everyday life, like $800 billion in Green New Deal regulations. Non-spending in the bill is even worse, such as prohibiting states from having right-to-work laws. I thought Joe Biden ran for president on the idea he would be a steady moderate, calming things down and uniting the nation. Turns out he is being more radical than Bernie Sanders.
