Does Joe Manchin realize he represents the 2nd poorest state in the country?

[Missouri_Mike]

Second only to Mississippi, West Virginia is home to some of the worst poverty in the US., but if you're like Senator Joe Manchin, worth $8 million (that we know of), the grass is a little greener on the other side of the fence.

He probably really cares about his constituents, but he drew the shortest straw and was picked to be the bad guy.

Bernie Sanders blasts Joe Manchin over Build Back Better opposition: 'He's going to have a lot of explaining to do to the people of West Virginia'

"Mr. Manchin says he's representing the people of West Virginia. Why don't you do a poll? ... I told Manchin I'll pay for the damn poll," Sanders said on Sunday.

Joe Manchin is betraying West Virginia

West Virginia's coal industry is doomed. Joe Manchin wants to take the whole state down with it.

And by passing build back broke they will become what? The poorest? Second richest? WTf does this boondoggle do for them?

He lives on a boat docked in Connecticut, right?

The only Democrat I ever voted for is Jimmy Carter in 1980, WHEN THE NATIONAL DEBT WAS $900 billion.

I couldn't stand Carter. Left our people to rot in Iran.

You have a convenient selective memory ?

We have the right to ban weapons being sent to those countries; or is it that you didn't or cannot read what is banned and limited?

Cubans are not starving. Fact is they have an excellent climate for growing food.

You cannot do anything to contribute to the conflicts in Belarus, Balkins, Syria, Côte d'Ivoire, D.R. Congo; and you cannot contribute to anyone attempting to undermine democracy or supporting those conflicts.

Sudan no oil products because North Sudan seems to want to control assets via slaughter of the South Sudanians (makes perfect sense to me to not buy from murderers to support them in any manner tthat will encourage them) or do you think those people are eating those petroleum products?

Iraq; no selling their national treasures and sales must be registered; common sense when people are raiding where they shouldn't be. Nothing stated about sending in food or needed survival goods.

Zimbabwe; no supporting those undermining the Democratic process.

North Korea; goods must first be approved and no registering vessels there. Pretty straight forward there too.

Again Burma; most goods banned. Daily human rights issues. The EU has embargos against them too, "embargo on arms and equipment that can be used for internal repression, an export ban on dual-use goods..."


Those your chart doesn't cover;

VENEZUELA​

On November 2014, the Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued a final rule amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to impose license requirements on the export, re-export, or transfer (in-country) of certain items to or within Venezuela when intended for a "military end use" or "military end user."

RUSSIA AND OCCUPIED CRIMEA​

Please contact the Office of Trade Compliance prior to engaging in any type of export (including temporary export such as travels with equipment) with Russia and occupied Crimea.


“As part of a series of sanctions announced by the United States, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) announced that it is expanding its export restrictions on items subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) in response to Russia’s continued actions in southern and eastern Ukraine.


Effective immediately, BIS will deny pending applications for licenses to export or re-export any high technology item subject to the EAR to Russia or occupied Crimea that contribute to Russia’s military capabilities. In addition, the Department is taking actions to revoke any existing export licenses which meet these conditions. All other pending applications and existing licenses will receive a case-by-case evaluation to determine their contribution to Russia’s military capabilities.



The United States will continue to adjust its export licensing policies toward Russia as warranted by Russia’s actions in Ukraine. We urge Russia to honor the commitments it made in Geneva on April 17 to deescalate the situation in Ukraine.”

Manchin is representing his state the way they want him to, instead of ignoring their wishes in favor of the democratic party. Which is EXACTLY what he was elected to do. The economic status of that state is irrelevant.

Why Democrats suddenly hating on poor people?

Boondoggle OR "making America great " -- depending on who's president right?

Trump calls for ‘big and bold’ $2 trillion infrastructure bill for fourth coronavirus aid plan

Four days after he signed a $2.2 trillion economic rescue package, President Trump called on Congress on Tuesday to approve another $2 trillion “phase four” plan, this time to rebuild the nation’s infrastructure.

He didn't get it. We know they steal the money. Only small portions go to infrastructure......Then they pay triple the price for the projects to their buddies. They can not be trusted and this needs to end.

 

[okfine]

Manchin has made millions from coal. Interesting how that works in W. Virginia.

 

[Jim H - VA USA]

I guess people have different ideas about what real wealth is.

 

[Markle]

I couldn't stand Carter. Left our people to rot in Iran.

Not at all unlike the actions of President Biden and Afghanistan where we still have American citizens and Afghans who helped us for years and are now being murdered or already dead.

Manchin is the only pro-life Dem in the senate, meaning he is the only Dem Senator who believes in God

That was already passed earlier. WTF does this 6 trillion have to do with infrastructure?

Yeah about that. The gôvernment had just shut down the economy due to actions from Communist China. Tens of millions of people and businesses were shut down through no fault of their own. Millions were left with no way to pay their bills or buy groceries. That, as you know well, is not the case today. In fact, red states such as Florida are doing just fine. The blue states and President Biden's handlers just can't face the fact that they are WRONG!

Just follow us and we'll be just fine.

He is not a Democrat. He is a Manchian.

The people of WV appear to support him…this proves that good poor people don’t think others should pay for their fuck-ups.

 

[WTH_Progs?]

Leftists a fucked up bunch. Who fucking cares the State is "poor", is that his fault?

You were hoping for a pay-off.

 

[OKTexas]

The government wastes a trillion a year on security, fights wars in places most Americans can't find on the map, and now that we're $30 TRILLION in debt, let's go ahead and let a million American kids starve this winter.

That'll teach those freeloaders.

Sanctioning our own people.

See post 11.

[BrokeLoser]

He just screwed all those poor and middle class folks

Of course Republicans also did since not a single one would support this bill

36 Million Families Face End Of Monthly Child Tax Credit Payments

The program has benefited poor and middle-class households alike. Now it seems doomed.

Hahaha…the mindset of you beggars is fascinating.
Manchin “screwed them” by not stealing other peoples cash? Twilight Zone shit

 

[OKTexas]

Here are the 10 states with the lowest household income:

1. Mississippi ($62,835)
2. West Virginia ($63,680)
3. Arkansas ($66,557)
4. New Mexico ($69,077)
5. Alabama ($69,842)
6. Kentucky ($70,144)
7. Louisiana ($71,001)
8. Oklahoma ($72,695)
9. South Carolina ($73,520)
10. Idaho ($73,810)

And all have low costs of living. So do you have a point?
