WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL! IT'S "SUIT AND TIE" WHITE SUPREMACY ON TELEVISION, RADIO, THE INTERNET AND AMERICAN POLICY!

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!

While the far-right is covering President Joe Biden's dog Major biting another White House worker, Hunter Biden's laptop, Tara Reade's latest grift, the president almost slipping on a rain soak stairs to Air Force One and their obsession with his mental abilities, the president is touting his infrastructure plan.

Biden took a victory lap when he confirmed that over 100 million doses of vaccine were distributed to Americans. He now wants another 100 million out before his 100 days.

The president went to Pittsburgh to rollout his proposal.

This plan will require those who make over $400,000 a year in salary (the current salary of the President of the United States) to pay taxes to fund the country's declining infrastructure. Trust me, if this gets passed, the funds should go to the Brent Spence Bridge in Cincinnati. 

That is one of the most dangerous bridges in the country. After a truck explosion on the bridge in 2020, the critical need to replace that bridge is growing. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) is all for the replacement of the bridge. But his fellow Ohio senator and two Kentuckian senators are opposed to it.

Outgoing Republican Rob Portman of Ohio, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Minority Leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) have not supported any infrastructure bill. They refused during presidencies of Barack Obama and Washed Up 45.

Interstate 75 is a major corridor for traffic and that bridge is going to collapse. The bridge is the gateway between the Midwest and the South. If the Congress passes the bill and Biden signs it into law, it could be the beginning of a movement to get the bridge replaced.

With the Biden "Build Back Better" plan, he will eliminate the old talking points of Washed Up 45 and Ronald Reagan. 

He is calling for the end of trickle down economics.

Biden is calling for $2 trillion in new spending on roads, bridges, rail and instructure. He wants to make better jobs for The president wants to end the Trump tax cuts which lowered corporate tax rate to 21%. He wants to bring it up to 28% and stiffen a minimum tax on multinational corporations.

The proposal will immediately see backlash from Republicans and the far-right. They have again signalled they will block any proposals. Democrats have hinted that a budget reconciliation is possible.

Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg is hoping to get the ball rolling on funding Interstate 69 between Indianapolis and Martinsville, Indiana which will make the freeway 95% complete. The proposal of Interstate 69's Ohio River Bridge is still a controversial topic. They hope to make a toll bridge to connect Evansville with Henderson, Kentucky. 

The proposals for Interstate 40 to travel from Barstow to Bakersfield is on the table as well as Interstate 49's extensions into Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Missouri. 

The Gordie Howe Bridge is being worked on between Detroit and Windsor, Canada.

The Skyway Bridge which carries Interstate 275 from St. Petersburg into rural Florida and Bradenton is need of work. 

So much stuff to do with infrastructure. So much.
