So President Biden's $1.9T COVID Relief Plan, one of the biggest spending packages in the history of US politics, passed by the HOR. However, I must say the length of time this has taken to help cash-strapped American citizens right across the country really is astonishing when one considers we are acknowledging the 1st anniversary of the official declaration of a global pandemic by the WHO and the US has now sadly lost well over 500k people to COVID. Add to that the fact that the Republicans didn't back this bill (not a single vote!!) but some of them shamelessly trying to take credit by attaching themselves to the benefits for certain business sectors and citizens in their relative states. And one wonders why many of us have such a low regard for politicians in general and particularly these kinda insidious individuals who don't behave with the sincerity and honesty that it would be nice to see dominating politics again. Sadly we have the same kinda crass politics, poor behaviour/attitude being played out almost on a daily basis by many Brit govt officials as well!!!
