Manchin's concerns about an "entitlement society" are hogwash. We have an entitlement society tilted towards the top who pay very little in taxes and are given endless piles of money we struggle to pay.
@GeoffT67803445@emrwilkins@RepJayapal@RepEscobar ICYMI, the progressives are simply providing the push to pass the reconciliation package with the support of Dem leadership and the whole damn party platform
96% of Democrats in Congress are ready to move forward with the Build Back Better Act AND infrastructure.

We are averaging 1000 COVID deaths a day again, except this time theres no mask mandates, no stimulus to stay home, theres a failed rollout for vaccines, and the ruling class wants you to believe the pandemic is over so you stay slaving away at work. This is a leadership failure
@SamFish90 I'm not a Democrat, so let me make sure I get this right. Is a litmus for being "the real deal" include taking money from republican donors?
