I hope that there is full on substantive debate.
“We can’t afford it” is short sighted and too dismissive.
The bill ought not be treated as an “all or nothing” proposition.
Break each proposal down, do the deep dive, and ask what is the forecasted return on investment? How big is the ripple effect? And what is the cost for taking a pass and not pulling the trigger?
I respect big and bold thinkers. FDR taught us that.
My guess is that moderate House Democrats will trim it down.
But, this bill has plenty of game changer initiatives. I encourage respectful and robust debate on the merits.
