(#4588) The infrastructure bills

      The House came back into session yesterday and through the night there was no agreement among democrats to move forward on the outline of the human infrastructure bill. Which means that moderate democrats are having a hissy fit over the price tag. Well it is about time these moderates grow a pair and quit holding back the American working middle poor class. It is bad enough that no republican in the House is going to support the working middle poor class but for a few moderate democrats to join them is making me angry and the rest of our nation upset.
     What to me is a very modest human infrastructure bill, it could easily have been 10 trillion instead of 3.5 trillion, the moderates are acting like our society is doing just fine. I am sick and tired of that analogy of doing just fine when all of us are under water as to living a normal healthy life. The republican party is the worst of what we humans can be but for a few democrats to act similarly is atrocious! There is no time for quibbling about this bill as it is what our president wants and he is the one who is making it possible. So these few moderate democrats had better get with it otherwise the end of democratic rule in both Houses will end in the next election.
     There is nothing in the human infrastructure bill that is expendable so what the moderate democrats are fussing about is nonsense. They want to force certain conditions upon the human infrastructure bill with impunity. Yet the progressive faction of the House can also gum up the plans of the moderates on the hard infrastructure bill. It would behoove the House moderates to temper their angst and get in line with Speaker Pelosi and allow President Biden's agenda to come to fruition. This whole paradigm of the 2 infrastructure bills is beyond the moderate democrats in the bigger picture so they had better get a clue real soon otherwise the whole idea of infrastructure improvements will die in the House and be upon their heads!
