  1.  @ImpeccableLiving  On each point 1. The inflation reduction act did not reduce inflation, the Fed raising interest rates did. In fact, inflation went up last up 2. Biden had nothing to do with the PACT act. It was bipartisan. 84 senators voted for it. It is rare these days to get something that both sides support that much 3. The infrastructure bill is a failure. It pushed for "clean energy" where we saw cars from Tesla not being able to start due to the cold weather. The electric busses the Biden team pushed were catching on fire where Proterra filed for bankruptcy. Manufacturing jobs are not growing. For example, under Trump the number of steel workers grew. Under Biden they have fallen to near record low according to FRED stats. But a big issue with the bill is that the government is its own worst enemies. They are spending over a trillion dollars on it but many projects cannot be launched. The federal government favored union jobs over nonunion jobs even though union membership has been dropping since 1983 (but did increase under Trump). There are limitations on nonunion jobs bidding on projects. When you limit a good portion of the workforce from taking up a project, projects won't get done. The bill also favored "green" alternatives where, as we saw with the bus companies, simply did not work. 4. Another failed bill. Just throwing money at something does not make it more efficient. As with the infrastructure bill, the government is its own worst enemies. They need to reduce the red tape in making the chips. Getting permits can take over a year because of "clean air". In China you can start building rather quickly. Same in getting the resources needed to make them. It takes up to a decade to open a new mine in the US. Not in China. Or refusing to push students to take on advanced degrees in science to obtain skills as opposed to getting a business degree or an art degree. International students are pursuing these advanced degrees in the US and then heading back home. If you want to improve the economy tell the federal government to step out of the way. Throwing money at something won't solve it. 5. No such thing as a free lunch, prices will go up elsewhere 6. Same as item 6 So yes, thanks for pointing out Biden's failures.
