    Amazing. What's left in the bill that even matters? The child tax credit? There's nothing I can do, Jack :biden-troll:

      Nah, it's just a trillion dollars for random businesses that all made a killing off the pandemic anyway.

      But actually afaik all that's still in it is an EV tax credit and the $1000 increase to the child tax credit.

      The child tax credit

      Next time we look it'll be the child labor tax. All to make sure profits from your kid working in the coal miners are evenly split between their boss, their parents, and their government.

      What's that? The kids don't get any pay for their work? They're getting paid in valuable work experience and character building! That kind of resume padding will be worth its weight in gold when they turn 18 and become actual human beings and not property of their parents.

      Child tax credit, climate measures, and universal pre-k. Everything else has either been cut or so watered-down that it might as well be.

        climate measures,

        Are they actually that? Or is the federal government giving the private sector mountains of cash and asking them to try to get around to fixing the problem.

          Mix of both. A lot of tax credits, a lot of jobs and a Civilian Climate Corps.
