What's in the $1.7T Omnibus Bill ?

[newfie]

The reason of the age 75 hoping you guys shortly afterwards
That way whoever inherits it will probably be in a higher tax bracket and has to use it all up within 10 years

about 35 percent of the population will never reach that age

Electoral Count Act: The measure updates the 1887 Electoral Count Act, in an effort to prevent another Jan. 6 insurrection.
The update makes it harder to block the certification of a presidential election.

Ukraine aid: Lawmakers will vote on giving Ukraine an extra $44.9 billion to aid it in its defense against the Russian invasion.

{ An amount like that would really help shore up the declining Social Security Fund , projected to go empty in 2034. }

dont worry they'll print more money when its time.

One interesting thing in this bill, General Sherman will be promoted to the rank of General of the armies of the US.

As a result, with that honor, he will stand only with George Washington and WW I general John J. Pershing.

Republicans betray voters on omnibus spending bill

Republicans betray voters on omnibus spending bill. This Congress wasted nearly $500 billion -- including funding ‘a steroid-induced hamster fight club.’

The dog and pony show about this bill where McConnell and Biden hooked up in Kentucky with a bridge behind them. Pitiful.
If the infrastructure bill were just a stand alone at 1.2 trillion, there wouldn't be a problem, because we need improvements on infrastructure in this country.
Biden has been in office for less than two years, he has spent $6.3 trillion that wasn't earmarked before he got into office. 6.3 trillion in new spending in two years. Borrowed money. We don't have it. That's the most money any president has ever spent by far. Second place, Barack Obama, 2.8 trillion in a two year period. By going to this event with Biden, McConnell legitimizes Biden.
