Contributing sentiments towards policy:
50% : Spending and taxes will go up, and so will the debt.45% : Let me say this: If this thing passes, despite it being a shell of the atrocious BBB behemoth, it is absolutely wild that Democrats are actually going to spend hundreds of billions of new dollars in the middle of rampant inflation -- while also raising taxes (including on businesses) right as the US economy is staring down the barrel of an active or looming recession.
37% : And when it comes to his 2010 statement that taxes shouldn't be raised during a recession -- because he couldn't look his constituents in the eye and ask them to pay a penny more while they were struggling -- then now is certainly not the time to raise taxes as a second consecutive quarter of negative GDP growth made a U.S. recession for the first half of 2022 official.
