Ha! Just as I expected, a bill that mostly builds infrastructure that corporations/Wall Street wanted, not much for the slave class (also known as the “middle class”).

As Warren Buffet once said “there has been class warfare and my class won.”

Biden should man-up and issue executive orders to satisfy at least a few of his campaign promises to the non-elite class.

You have to be more specific and explain why the middle class slaves don’t benefit from power lines, airports, fixed water pipes, flood protections etc.
We benefit somewhat by increased employment but I believe that the reconciliation bill had the good stuff for non-elites, not this bill.

It is an open question whether massive spending is appropriate right now.
