Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Eat The Rich

 ProPublica has a nice rundown on how the "Billionaires Tax" would work. There are plenty of parts of BBB that Manchinema killed, but killing this one was almost political malpractice. It's needed, it's popular and it could have funded something like paid family leave.

BBB is going to do a lot of good. Hopefully, Democrats will get another bite at the apple in 2023 with a few more Senate seats.
