Personally, I don’t really have a strong opinion on the optimal design of a $1.9 trillion relief package. You need to spend “whatever it takes” to address the actual pandemic and the rest comes down to what members of congress want to do. — PolitiTweet.org

I feel like if Biden did an investment-forward package, Tyler would be asking why he’s blowing all this money on infrastructure boondoggles that will take years to complete rather than addressing urgent needs. — PolitiTweet.org

I say that is a reason for prioritizing investment, not consumption. Inflation is a red herring in this debate, btw.
