How a lot of what he is doing is picking up and going further than Obama and a lot of it is needed and good (reducing poverty, investing in infrastructure etc.). Well - he's put the package to the Congress (where I have no doubt it will be rejected) https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57285970 $6tn and includes: This budget promises: More than $800bn for the fight against climate change, including investments in clean energy $200bn to provide free pre-school places for all three and four-year-olds $109bn for two years of free community college for all Americans $225bn for a national paid family and medical leave programme - bringing the US in line with comparable wealthy nations $115bn for roads and bridges and $160bn for public transit and railways $100bn to improve access to broadband internet for every American household No small potatoes..... |  |

I posted an article on Biden a while back and about how he's not on 12:55 - May 29 with 1922 views | tractordownsouth | Biden seems to have learnt a lot of lessons from the Obama era and is on track to be a better President. When Obama had the trifecta in his first two years of office, he didn't really do enough with the power he had, which was a factor in the Republican gains in both midterms. What Biden proposes will have to be moderated due to the arithmetic in the Senate, but if he gets most of it through that would be largely positive. He seems to be the blueprint of the 'campaign as a moderate, govern from the left' model. |  |

It's often crossed my mind when driving through Pakenham how it seems such a likely site for a flipping nuclear reactor. What with the stream and the old mill and the listed houses. |  |

No the poster is right , Biden in a recent speech stated that "anyone earning 400k or less would not pay a single penny in tax". There are plenty of clips on Youtube of this speech. Obviously it was a gaffe and he clearly meant to say will pay *no more* as not taxing anyone earning less than 400k makes absolutely no sense at all. |  | |  |

Sounds like nonsense given its not a major problem in any other country that has a decent benefits system. Perhaps what he actually means is people don't want to work for the measly wages those businesses are offering. Pay them properly and they will come. SB |  | |  |
I posted an article on Biden a while back and about how he's not on 08:53 - May 30 with 1312 views | Oldsmoker | The Republicans in the Senate are deliberately obstructing most legislation eg. Jan 6th Commision. In the 2010 Midterms they scuppered Obama by making gains in the house and senate and that's their plan this time. They will claim that Biden made promises but didn't keep them but in reality it will be the Republicans in the Senate that voted down his bills. The Republicans won't win the Presidency again but will always ensure that a Democrat president can't pass any bills without their backing. I think America will start to stagnate if this continues as the norm. |  |

I’d call BS on that. People aren’t turning down an extra $5 over the state minimum wage. If they are then there’s something else to it. Millions and millions of Americans work for a lot less. |  |

"It’s like you’ll go ‘person, woman, man, camera, TV’. So they’ll say ‘could you repeat that?’ So I said ‘yeah’. So it’s person, woman, man, camera, TV.

I mean this is obviously Paz's favourite trolling subject. Even someone with room temperature IQ can see the difference between the two blokes. One is an elderly, orange, rambling, racist, Islamophobic, homophobic, sex offending steak salesman who has spent his whole life hanging around with con men, rapists and nonces, and the other is an elderly man who has fought to overcome a speech impediment his whole life. Guess which one appealed to Paz. [Post edited 30 May 2021 14:53]
