Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

That is a correct assessment of what I said.
At least in as far as the contents of the bill, its not for either of us to disagree or agree with. Its what was. Democrats submitted the bill as it is written here. Biden's whitehouse was responsible for this bill.
We could argue if it was a good bill or a bad bill; its probably obvious that I would argue it was a disastrous bill on multiple levels. Firstly, its just a terrible bill; any moral person shouldn't vote for a party which puts bills like this before congress. Second, the manner in which Biden utterly floundered in their ability to steward preferred legislation through congress showed them to be an utterly and incapable manager of the nation. It highlighted his utter incompetence at a critical moment; that he was completely cuckolded by an out of power convicted felon who had clearly attempted to over throw the democratically elected government of the United States on January 6th. It showed Biden had no ability to manage the government he was a part of. Perfectly valid to disagree with this.
What we can't disagree on is the contents of the bill, or which party was responsible for submitting it to congress, or that it was Biden's legislation. Those are matters of fact.
