It is
said that, “We have to have bipartisan cooperation if we’re going
to tackle these items,” said Rep. G.K. Butterfield
(D-N.C.).
Wrong.
To Build Back Better we must work for
bi-partisan constituents not legislators. The US House and
Senate spent multiple weeks in bi-partisan discussions of the Covid
relief bill, that was essentially what the Democratic majority in the
House had passed in May of 2020, for the bill to receive precisely 0
(ZERO) Qpublican votes in both House and Senate.
The Clinton
administration finally picked up the mess made in the Reagan and HW
Bush administrations, then we hemmed and hawed amongst ourselves
while Republicans marketed their, largely fraudulent, message
much better and we got a W Bush administration.
The
Obama administration picked up the mess made by the W Bush
administration, then we (Democrats), once again, began to second
guess ourselves while the Republicans, again, marketed better and the
orange menace's administration (along with the final stage of
transformation from Republican to Qpublican) happened.
President
Biden is a veteran of the machinations of the Q(Re)publicans in the
US federal government and knows we not only must go big, we must
market better than the Qpublicans or, once again, we'll fix what was
broken only to be sent packing afterward.
The USA has made
phenomenal things happen repeatedly when the government has provided
around 30% (more when needed) of the money spent into the national
economy. We must do it again, market and take proper credit
for, building back better such that we stay and keep the trajectory
of the nation (and with us the rest of the world) onward and upward.
