First, Dems are relying on budget gimmicks when they say this thing costs $1.75 trillion.
@BudgetModel found the true cost will be a whopping $4 TRILLION after Dems make their spending programs permanent
Even the NYT called them out on their BS 👇

Even if you buy that this will be paid for (it won’t) all of the spending is front loaded. It will increase the deficit by $800B over the first 5 yrs before recouping some of the costs later.
This means it will make inflation – which hit a 30 yr high in October – worse.
