I think the power of a single senator to block a nomination is one of the biggest things wrong with how the Senate operates.

This is not a new thought. It is not a new problem.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

The latest from the  Build Back America lunacy:
Paid Family Leave - Gone
Free Community College -Gone
Billionaires Tax- All but Gone
Green Energy Shit -Gone

The destruction of Socialism is always a beautiful thing to behold!

Social is good though.

- Paid maternity leave for 6 weeks before, and for 6 weeks after, the birth....OK.
- Reasonable tax rate increase for billionaires...OK.
- Green energy introduced over time, cutting pollution etc...OK.
- Subsidised community college for low income families...OK.
- Subsidised public housing for low income/needy people (no drugs, no violence, ...respect the properties, clean them,  keep them nice, or you'll be booted out and they'll be allotted to other people)....OK.

And you supported Trump, who opposed all of that.

Youve just described Socialism,  which turns out not to be a dirty word.   And has been part of both our countries social infrastructure since at least the early 20th century, in some form.

The destruction of the environment, the poor,  and working class families is always a beautiful thing to behold!

(edited for clarity)
LOL
It is the Biden Legislation being rejected  by his own party.
No it is not. The scope is being narrowed because two senators are objecting in spite of the wishes of the party's members. And by all polls the wishes of the majority of the people. But the agenda is still there.

Yes. Are you?

Obviously not.

Whatever happens they will call it a victory.
It will be. A massive program that will improve the lives of millions of regular Americans will be passed. It is not perfect and it is not as big as it should be, but the perfect cannot be the enemy of the good.

That is actually true. What that upside down idiot described is what people like you denounce as Socialism in preference to actual policy discussions. But it is not Socialism. Nor is Biden

Besides,  you and Red are calling it a defeat despite the fact that your position is $0.

6% Inflation but only 2% growth while Biden  and the democrats debate raising taxes, even unconstitutional ones.
Thankfully 52 per cent of the US Senate can see what a lie Build Back Better really is.
