On paper the Biden agenda is full of things like “we’ll spend money on this good thing and pay for it by taxing the rich.” But interest rates are very low. The country can afford an ice cream option where we spend money on some good things and “offset” with tax cuts. — PolitiTweet.org

The student debt relief idea is poorly targeted and I think a little politically dicey but any kind of fiscal stimulus would be useful. I think if Biden does it he should just do it fast and not let this become like an era-defining political argument. — PolitiTweet.org
