Infrastructure bill will do much good

I recently read in the T-R where Sen. Grassley and Sen. Ernst are disagreeing on the infrastructure bill.

Sen. Ernst is complaining about the cost of the bill at around $3 trillion. But, why didn’t she complain about the close to $10 trillion that increased our national debt in the four years under Trump? What did he do for the working class or did he just spend it on himself as he flew to Florida to golf, taking along his crew and his family members? I don’t know if we taxpayers paid for that or not.

I do remember when Obama left office the debt was around $18 trillion and when Trump left office it was close to $28 trillion.

However, I do know that the infrastructure bill favors the working class and will do so much good. And just maybe, with more working and paying more taxes we can start paying off the debt.

I do wish both parties would worry more over the care of our people and less about being reelected.
