Disapproval Ratings Gone Up

[Road Runner]

Is there anybody here who actually voted for Biden regretting it? It seems a lot of places I look on this forum are talking about his "victories* and approval ratings going up,.. but everywhere I look I see let's go Brandon so I don't know how that's possible.

Well...my vote..and my goal..was all about removing Trump. I never really gave Biden much thought..as I figured he'd be a caretaker President anyway. I'm pleased that with the infrastructure bill..he's actually accomplished something.

All the chicken littles in the world can't convince that we're on the eve of destruction. It's just business as usual, absent Trump. I see this as a good thing.

methinks the bigger perspective is lack of 'choice'.....~S~

First of all, we can agree to disagree, second of all can you please explain to me what that infrastructure bill is all about? I've only seen headlines and I don't know what that is.

Choice of what? Who you want as the president or something else?

we're on the eve of destruction

The whole d*mn world is just explodin’
Virus’s flarin’ satan gloatin’
You want to go to work & Congress is voting
All while the loans they consider are afloatin
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, you don’t believe we’re on eve of extinction



Don’t you understand , the card they’re playin’
Can’t you see the fears that they’ve parlayin’
When fascism comes there’s no running away
There’ll be no market to save, when we’re socialist slaves
And you tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, you don’t believe we’re on the eve of extinction

w/apologies to Mr Mcguire

You had plenty of choices.
You had a choice between national security, economic stability, and socialism.
Biden is socialism.
Biden doesn't believe in the rest.

That's what the corrupt media wanted you to think.
Trump was smarter than you gave him credit for.....but it took hiring the right person to weed out all of the spies and moles in his administration.
Trump was a better president than Obama or Biden.

Congress passed a $1.2 trillion infrastructure package Friday, approving a signature part of President Joe Biden's economic agenda.
It will deliver $550 billion of new federal investments in America's infrastructure over five years, touching everything from bridges and roads to the nation's broadband, water and energy systems. Experts say the money is sorely needed to ensure safe travel, as well as the efficient transport of goods and produce across the country. The nation's infrastructure system earned a C- score from the American Society of Civil Engineers earlier this year.

Here's what's in the infrastructure bill:​

Funding for roads and bridges
The bill calls for investing $110 billion for roads, bridges and major infrastructure projects. That's significantly less than the $159 billion that Biden initially requested in the American Jobs Plan.
Included is $40 billion for bridge repair, replacement and rehabilitation, according to the bill text. The White House says it would be the single, largest dedicated bridge investment since the construction of the interstate highway system, which started in the 1950s.
The deal also contains $16 billion for major projects that would be too large or complex for traditional funding programs, according to the White House.
The package would provide $39 billion to modernize public transit, according to the bill text. That's less than the $85 billion that Biden initially wanted to invest in modernizing transit systems and help them expand to meet rider demand.
The funds would repair and upgrade existing infrastructure, make stations accessible to all users, bring transit service to new communities and modernize rail and bus fleets, including replacing thousands of vehicles with zero-emission models, according to the White House.
The deal would also invest $66 billion in passenger and freight rail, according to the bill text. The funds would eliminate Amtrak's maintenance backlog, modernize the Northeast Corridor line and bring rail service to areas outside the Northeast and mid-Atlantic regions, according to the White House. Included in the package is $12 billion in partnership grants for intercity rail service, including high-speed rail.
The funding is less than the $80 billion Biden originally wanted to send to Amtrak, which he relied upon for decades to get home to Delaware from Washington, DC.
Still, it would be the largest federal investment in public transit in history and in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak 50 years ago, according to the White House.
Broadband upgrade
The bill would provide a $65 billion investment in improving the nation's broadband infrastructure, according to the bill text. Biden initially wanted to invest $100 billion in broadband.
It also aims to help lower the price households pay for internet service by requiring federal funding recipients to offer a low-cost affordable plan, by creating price transparency and by boosting competition in areas where existing providers aren't providing adequate service. It would also create a permanent federal program to help more low-income households access the internet, according to the White House fact sheet.

Upgrading airports, ports and waterways
The deal would invest $17 billion in port infrastructure and $25 billion in airports to address repair and maintenance backlogs, reduce congestion and emissions near ports and airports and promote electrification and other low-carbon technologies, according to the White House
Electric vehicles
The bill would provide $7.5 billion for zero- and low-emission buses and ferries, aiming to deliver thousands of electric school buses to districts across the country, according to the White House.
Another $7.5 billion would go to building a nationwide network of plug-in electric vehicle chargers, according to the bill text.
Improving power and water systems
The bill would invest $65 billion to rebuild the electric grid, according to the White House. It calls for building thousands of miles of new power lines and expanding renewable energy, the White House said.
It would provide $55 billion to upgrade water infrastructure, according to the bill text. It would replace lead service lines and pipes so that communities have access to clean drinking water, the White House said.
Another $50 billion would go toward making the system more resilient -- protecting it from drought, floods and cyberattacks, the White House said.
Environmental remediation
The bill would provide $21 billion to clean up Superfund and brownfield sites, reclaim abandoned mine land and cap orphaned gas wells, according to the White House.

Okay, all of these seem like good things and I know that there has to be issues with this somewhere because with the Biden Harris administration, they never do anything good.
