$61 billion would lay a lot of fiber optic which this country lacks in rural areas. Roads, bridges too. Just think if we had the $9 trillion wasted in the middle east etc back what we could do with total infrastructure.

And not a damn penny to help solve problems here. We need a complete reset of our government. A 1776 movement.

This is a HUGE win for the Republicans. What held up the Senate bill to begin with was a lot of money for joey's imported illegal aliens. It was to help them transport across the entire nation more easily. With that section gone the republicans should be celebrating.

Not so fast my friend. Biden said he will never sign a stand alone bill for Israel. Watch what gets added to it.

95 billion? Can basically give every person in the country around 250 bucks.

If they are that determined to damn us by printing infinite dollars, I'd rather everyone get 250 bucks before a dime goes to Ukraine or Israel... for wars we shouldn't be involved in

Big facts. Welfare like this makes Trump’s Covid stimulus payments look genius.
