Democrats are getting closer to a social spending bill to help America
Biden looks to scale back social spending bill to $2.2 trillion or less
The leader of progressive House Democrats said Tuesday her members had a "really good, productive meeting" with President Joe Biden as the president works to get separate wings of his party to agree to a legislative package between $1.9 trillion to $2.2 trillion for the climate and American social safety-net agenda.
"We all still feel even more optimistic about getting to an agreement on a really transformational bill that will fundamentally lift people up," said Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., chair of the House Progressive Caucus.
Personally, I think by the time they pass it, if they do, it will be so watered down it will be a major disappointment to Dems and Independents and create a disaster for the Dems in the mid-terms.
White House nearly always loses seats in congress in the first mid-term but this could be a big landslide.

awaiting action in Congress would authorize hundreds of billions of dollars for transportation, which would include workforce development for the trucking industry.
That would allow 3,000 drivers between the ages of 18-20 to undergoing professional training, permitting them to drive tractor-trailers across state lines. Currently, drivers must be 21 to do so.
Spear believes younger drivers are the KEY answer to the labor shortage. "I think that clearly is the most impactful thing that could be done right now to alleviate this problem. So next year, [we] are not going to be having this conversation because it will alleviate itself because we're investing," said Spear.
investing hundreds of $ BILLIONS in transportation infrastructure is no small deal
but clearly its needed and americans at home want it ( according to polls )
but will any repos in congress vote to pass that legislation that americans want ??

Supply-chain experts agree that consumers fueled the everything shortage - NOT THE GOVERNMENT
BUSINESS INSIDER (via Yahoo News)
• Experts say consumers fueled the supply-chain crisis by buying more goods during the pandemic.
• Online spending has gone through the roof in recent years,
causing backlogs at ports and warehouses.
The global supply chain has been stretched past its limit, and experts say consumers are MORE THAN PARTLY to blame.
.
From panic-buying to two-day shipping expectations, consumers helped fuel the supply-chain crisis.
Business Insider spoke with 12 experts in labor, logistics, and economics who said shoppers are at least partially to blame for the supply-chain disruptions that left store shelves empty and spawned price hikes(inflation!)

More goods flow through the supply chain than ever before
In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, global consumers spent $900 billion more online than in previous years, and spending continues to balloon.
In the first half of 2021, global consumer spending was up 22% year-over-year - a $3.2 trillion increase, according to Tony Pelli, practice director of security and resilience at BSI.
"Demand grew so rapidly in the past two years that it's equivalent to about 50 MILLION new Americans joining the economy," Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain policy at the National Retail Federation, told Insider.

Well that, yes, and OPEC refusing to increase production (keeping prices of fuel artificially HIGH); and the results of the economic pandemic the trump regime set in motion causing many businesses to layoff workers and production - particularly in HOUSING - which caused problems when consumer demand increased; and the stupid-ass TARIFFS trump imposed on Canadian lumber -- thus driving up the costs of the already more expensive and far smaller supply of American lumber -- which caused housing costs to SOAR! Housing is one of if not the LARGEST driver in inflationary costs - since it's the most expensive item most people invest in. HUGE inflation.

Then there's the whole microchip shortage - which nowadays go into so many consumer items - and scarcity in supply always drives up the costs to consumers. More inflation. And once again a PRIVATE SECTOR shortage issue - NOT THE GOVERNMENT.

• Experts say consumers fueled the supply-chain crisis by buying more goods during the pandemic.
• Online spending has gone through the roof in recent years, causing backlogs at ports and warehouses.
The global supply chain has been stretched past its limit, and experts say consumers are MORE THAN PARTLY to blame.
so repos r left with two choices of who to blame since the third choice - blame nobody ust wont fly in their airport .
either blame consumers for spending so much online for products rather than services or blame joe biden for consumers spending so much online for products rather than services . i wonder which of those 2 will the chump worshippers on all rw media choose ?
Gee. That's a toughie. Will right-wing media (all forms) choose to blame consumers for spending so much during the pandemic that trump-exacerbated? or blame President Biden for consumers spending so much during the pandemic that trump-exacerbated?
That's a really close call. Because we all know trump worshippers are very well-read, and totally fair-minded.
Hmmmmm. Blame the source of the problem for the problem, which on the surface appears to make LOGICAL SENSE, OR blame a political opponent who has nothing to do with it for the problem??

so repos r left with two choices of who to blame since the third choice - blame nobody ust wont fly in their airport .
either blame consumers for spending so much online for products rather than services or blame joe biden for consumers spending so much online for products rather than services . i wonder which of those 2 will the chump worshippers on all rw media choose ?
Gee. That's a toughie. Will right-wing media (all forms) choose to blame consumers for spending so much during the pandemic that trump-exacerbated? or blame President Biden for consumers spending so much during the pandemic that trump-exacerbated?
That's a really close call. Because we all know trump worshippers are very well-read, and totally fair-minded.
Hmmmmm. Blame the source of the problem for the problem, which on the surface appears to make LOGICAL SENSE, OR blame a political opponent who has nothing to do with it for the problem??
From panic-buying to two-day shipping expectations, consumers helped fuel the supply-chain crisis.
Business Insider spoke with 12 experts in labor, logistics, and economics who said shoppers are at least partially to blame for the supply-chain disruptions that left store shelves empty and spawned price hikes(inflation!)
well theres your big cause for inflation right there at least a large part of it
Well that, yes, and OPEC refusing to increase production (keeping prices of fuel artificially HIGH); and the results of the economic pandemic the trump regime set in motion causing many businesses to layoff workers and production - particularly in HOUSING - which caused problems when consumer demand increased; and the stupid-ass TARIFFS trump imposed on Canadian lumber -- thus driving up the costs of the already more expensive and far smaller supply of American lumber -- which caused housing costs to SOAR! Housing is one of if not the LARGEST driver in inflationary costs - since it's the most expensive item most people invest in. HUGE inflation.
oh yaaa i forgot about trumps tarrifs on canadian lumber driving up housing costs !
i knew about OPEC

Then there's the whole microchip shortage - which nowadays go into so many consumer items - and scarcity in supply always drives up the costs to consumers. More inflation. And once again a PRIVATE SECTOR shortage issue - NOT THE GOVERNMENT.
clearly private sector not involving the biden admin
but that wont stop the chump brown-nosers on rw media sites from pointing the finger of blame at joe biden anyway
and hunter biden
and hillary clinton
and liz cheney
and all those repos who voted to impeach chump a second time
its all their fault theres a computer chip shortage
