THE COST OF BIDEN’S STIMULUS PLANS

Biden’s ‘infrastructure’ plan would cost $809,000 per job

President Joe Biden’s “infrastructure” plan is called the American Jobs Plan, but it doesn’t focus much on infrastructure and wouldn’t create many jobs. A more appropriate name for the $2.2 trillion proposal would be the “American Debt Plan.”
Former President Barack Obama’s “stimulus” bill, which Congress passed in 2009 with Biden as vice president, cost taxpayers a cool $278,000 for every new job added or saved, based on estimates from Obama’s hand-picked economists. Biden’s “infrastructure” plan might have trouble matching even that pathetic record. The plan’s overarching philosophy appears to be that the private sector doesn’t create jobs but government creates jobs.
Moody’s Analytics projects that Biden’s “infrastructure” plan would result in there being 2.7 million additional nonfarm jobs by 2030 at a total cost of $2,183,800,000,000. That works out to $809,000 per job — nearly three times as much as those under Obama’s failed “stimulus” bill. Yet Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said that creating fewer than 3 million jobs at the cost of more than $2 trillion “is a great place to be.”
Perhaps Buttigieg is comparing this anemic rate of return to that of Biden’s recently passed “COVID-19 stimulus” bill, which Moody’s projects will result in about 700,000 additional jobs by 2030 at a cost, per the Congressional Budget Office, of $1.8 trillion. That’s a little over $2.5 million per job. Still, compared to anything but Biden’s wasteful COVID-19 stimulus bill, his infrastructure plan would be an appallingly inefficient job-creation program.

‘THE TYRANNY OF BIG TECH’ BY SENATOR JOSH HAWLEY – LIFE, LIBERTY & LEVIN
Monday, May 3rd, 2021
Mark Levin had an excellent show last night with Senator Josh Hawley. Several days ago I sent out an article by Stephen Moore who disagreed with Senator Hawley regarding the breaking up of Big Tech. Senator Hawley makes a great case for controlling Big Tech and Mark Levin highly recommends Senator Hawley’s new book “The Tyranny of Big Tech” Nancy

BREAKING UP BIG TECH – PROS AND CON
Wednesday, April 28th, 2021
I was supportive of Senator Josh Hawley’s bill to break up the big tech companies because they have become too powerful at restricting the free speech of conservatives. But, after reading Stephen Moore’s article below, he does make some very valid points But as Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio noted, “Antitrust laws aren’t the right remedy for political attacks on free speech.” Read the article and see what you think. Nancy
GOP trust-busters are embracing a left-wing agenda
It’s not too often that Republicans embrace the agenda of leftist Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. But it’s happening.
Josh Hawley, the young Republican senator from Missouri, has introduced a bill called the Trust-Busting for the Twenty-First Century Act. It may be the most dangerous bill to our economy from a Republican in ages. It would reduce competitiveness, cost millions of jobs, penalize companies for growing and being profitable, kill funding for small-business startups, and empower unprecedented new regulatory powers to the deep state lawyers and bureaucrats in Washington.
Hawley is no fan of the politics of Big Tech (who is?), so he wants to put new teeth into antitrust laws that were birthed during America’s first “Progressive Era.” His bill would:
- Ban mergers and acquisitions by firms with a market cap of over $100 billion.
- Change the standard of “monopolistic” behavior from causing “consumer harm” to one that emphasizes “the protection of competition.”
- Significantly expand the power of federal regulatory agencies to rein in domestic firms in the high-tech sector.
Hawley, whose background is as a lawyer (of course), defends his bill by saying: “This country and this government shouldn’t be run by a few megacorporations.” The Republican Party “has got to become the party of trust-busting once again.”
Yikes. That’s like saying we should bring back smallpox.
Trust-busting is based on the century-old leftist fairy tale that says rapacious “robber barons had taken over America.” Economist Burt Folsom exploded these liberal lies in his classic book The Myth of The Robber Barons, which shows definitively that J.P. Morgan, Henry Ford, Andrew Mellon, Andrew Carnegie, Cornelius Vanderbilt, and John D. Rockefeller were anything but villains who raped consumers with their monopolistic behavior and “stockpiles of wealth.”

EXECUTIVE ORDER CANCELING THE CONSTITUTION

EXECUTIVE ORDER CANCELING THE CONSTITUTION
By Leo Goldstein April 20, 2021
On April 15, Preident Biden signed an Executive Order on Blocking Property with Respect to Specified Harmful Foreign Activities of the Government of the Russian Federation. Contrary to its title, this EO is not about Russia. It is designed to allow the Biden administration to deprive American citizens and organizations of their rights and property by arbitrarily linking those persons to real, imagined, or vaguely defined activities of the Russian government.
The Biden administration unilaterally makes the determination and requires neither criminal acts nor intent. The punishment is blocking assets and a prohibition on any dealing with the accused person. Spouses and adult children of individuals found guilty by accusation under this EO are punished, too.
The EO was preceded by some distracting maneuvers, both diplomatic (hostile rhetoric toward Russia) and military (sending naval ships toward the Black Sea and recalling them back, as if dealing with Russian threats). Thus, many people assumed that the EO was directed at Russia, and completely missed the fact that it is directed at dissent here, at home.

“Pathetic Appeal To Hysterical Media, Frightened Voters” – Aussie TV Anchor Unloads On “Loopy-Left Era Of Joe Biden”
Sky News host Chris Kenny says “welcome to the loopy-left era of Joe Biden, where climate policy is about existential alarmism” after the US had a Mexican-American teenager address world leaders during an online climate summit.
“Last night we saw yet another climate summit. Another global gathering of world leaders parading their virtue, making grand promises, playing to the green left media zeitgeist, and never being accountable for any of their promises or actions,” he said.
“And yet while the weather bureau can’t forecast 24 hours ahead, and bureaucrats can’t run a Zoom chat, these world leaders and the climate activists they pander to, tell us they do know what will happen to the climate decades from now, and even better, they know how to control it.
Even while they agree that the country that has by far the largest carbon footprint, China, can be allowed to continue to dramatically increase its emissions.”

VIDEO ARIZONA RECOUNT BEGINS

VIDEO ARIZONA RECOUNT BEGINS
The ballot hand recount in Arizona is about the begin. Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast got an exclusive inside look of the massive center that will house the audit of 2.1 million ballots. It’s clear by the look of this incredible operation why Dominion and Democrats are working overtime to stop the audit. There can only be one reason why they wouldn’t want a thorough recount…they obviously have something to hide.
Once one contested state falls, they all fall. This is the biggest victory for Donald Trump and his voters since November 3, 2020.

Patrick Byrne 2020 Election Fraud China Cyber Attacks Won 5 Swing States Steel Truth
RUMBLE –April 12, 2021: Patrick Byrne Interview with Ann Vandersteel of Steel Truth – Explosive Truth Bombs dropping this week!
National Poll says 51.2% of American Adults believe that fraud played a very significant role in Joe Biden’s victory. Americans feel like they’re living in a fake reality. The counter offensive is launching now. 80 cyberattacks flipped 2.2 million votes in five swing states, and 19 of those attacks can be attributed to enemy action out of China.
Hammer & Scorecard: Hammer is the tool that breaks open the election systems and Scorecard is the one that manipulates the votes. They have access to 150,000 machines around the world. Hammer comes preloaded with credentials of 4,000 US government employees from Secretary of State down to the assistant janitor. I can’t imagine that they cannot find four people on the Supreme Court who will sign off and say, “Yes, this has to become a case.” If people, after seeing this data, are still fighting either they’re just evil or they’re delusional. We have to treat them almost as if they’re a bit deranged.
