| 1636398164629413889 | Now on our webcast The Prescription: @Brian_Riedl talks about Biden's budget and GOP proposed alternatives. Although Biden's overall proposal would reduce deficits by $3 trillion from the baseline, it won't really alter the rapid growth in debt over time, Riedl says. #LiveatUrban | 1 |
| 1639157058481057795 | @Brian_Riedl there has to be some common sense middle ground between throwing gay people off of roofs on the one hand, and shoving trite, corporatist American gay and trans BS at every country in the world. | 1 |
| 1636548909454569475 | “Beneath the infighting remains an undercurrent of lawmakers reaching across the aisle for bipartisan deals, which could bring a low-cost economic stimulus law and some marginal process on deficit reduction,” writes @ManhattanInst’s @Brian_Riedl. | 1 |

| 1637253173940453376 | @Brian_Riedl Thanks for the answer. I feel like 80% of America could agree on 90% of what we need to do but instead we kick the can down the road...and it isn't going to get fixed. I have no idea if you're optimistic that we can fix this. Or if you think the US government is just too broken. | 0 |

| 1637197293844561926 | @Brian_Riedl Im generally with u, but it does bother me somewhat that a billionaire, etc. can never sell stock, and just borrow against stock which is not income. Am i missing something? | 4 |
