The U.S. Senate has passed the Inflation Reduction Act, earmarking $369 billion for U.S. energy security and fighting climate change. CNBC reports.
I am shocked. It is absolutely criminal earmarking $369 billion for U.S. energy security. That money rightfully belongs to UKRAINE!
Send it over to Zelensky! Do it! Do it NOW!!
Such a bunch of bull! IF we get any relief …. I’ll read this article! How MUCH BULL does this have in it unseen???
Solar and wind are not “energy security” they are an add-on. Germany, who has the largest economy in the EU, has proven that the current technology that is solar and wind CANNOT produce even close to enough electricity to meet demand. Atomic Energy is the only way but you will not see Atomic because it is very inexpensive once it is up and running and the rich people who control global energy do not like this. They like oil, coal and gas…buy, burn, buy more. I mean, why do you think the US navy is sitting in the Persian Gulf at this very moment? The answer is, “Mercantilism.” And Mercantilism has nothing to do with going green.
EVERYONE STOP PAYING TAXES! GO EXEMPT! STOP PAYING THESE IDIOTS!!
Ok at this point im just gonna assume whenever Democrats do or say something, they mean the excat opposite. “Inflation reduction act” But we are still spending billions to what? Lower the global temperature by 0.000001% in the next 150 years. Everying is more expensive so we are going to raise taxes on pretty much everyone who isnt completely broke and unemployed (bassicly 80% of their base)
“Inflation Increase Act” passed in the senate because hyena Harris broke the tie !!
Get ready to pay taxes dummies
America is trash.
Wake up America
But the Inflation Reduction Act does have provisions that support fossil fuel producers. It requires the US Dept. of Interior to lease 2 million acres in federal lands onshore and 60 million acres offshore each year for oil and gas development.
If the leases aren’t in Alaska or the gulf of Mexico, they are leasing dry wells .
a crumb that will add little to help
with the disastrous biden energy policies.
regretfully it is apparent that you do not understand the oil business.
that is why they can throw you that bone so you can feel good about being a obedient little liberal.
congratulations.
you are partly responsible for the mess we are currently in.
support for biden.
support for radical democrats.
makes you a tool.
vote democrat………why?🐑
Dont be fooled, the US wouldnt need those leases for drilling on federal land if Biden didnt sign an exectutive order banning all oil drilling on US federa land. Its like taking something away then trying to get credit and $ for giving it back.
They are deliberately tanking the economy in anticipation of the Republicans taking control of Congress in November.
There are no laws on titling bills are there…
Fake news
Is there any problem Biden won’t try to spend his way out of?
Affordable Care Act, big bank bailouts, car manufacturer bailouts, Inflation Reduction Act, all sponsored by democrats, all giving a big middle finger to taxpayers and none of it ever works like they claim.
Nope, hiring 87,000 IRS agents does not help anyone
A win for the democrats?? they stink, they smell of beef and cheese!!! This is no win.
this inflation reduction act is a scam,more lies by those comunist deocraps ,it dont solve inflation ,it does raise taxes on the working class people, it does give the irs to herass hard working americans and lets the crooked congress people get away stealing money from the taxpayers ! its like a big money laundry operation!
Spend 740 billion to lower inflation brought to you buy those who caused it, catchy name though, like the ACA they got their naming on point no matter how bad it screws us all. The media carrying that water no matter how stupid they look. A win for Democrats, yes you asshats but a massive loss for Americans, but then who gives a good phuck about the average American right?
Nice to see CNBC speaking the truth.
🐑 sheep 🐑
Lol tax corporations and billionaires more who own all the goods and services, and what will happen when they have to pay more? The cost of all your goods and services go up!
You will own nothing and be happy
such a HOAX.. energy corporations lobbied the GOV into paying 369billion to “help its citizens”s, they all just got payed from this bill through “government issued money” created by the federal reserve corporation …..government officials should be held to a higher standard court of rule..for many reasons among them to discourage similar events from reoccurring through stiff penalties higher then those imposed on average citizens
Why Biden’s democratic Socialist want to turn America into a third world country!
The reason Biden and the left want to approach inflation this way with huge government action spending, is straight from the globalist playbook. It enriches the elite the elite inner circle and devalues the middle class labor lives of ordinary people. We can see the extreme of this philosophy playing out before our eyes first it was Venezuela, now Argentina has followed this ungodly playbook and America is on track to becoming another socialist country is is not pretty, the result of reckless spending, with all sort of false promises, and trying to run our country on handouts…
Most people no longer want to work especially for low-wage jobs, and would rather collect payouts from the government instead.
Those who are working will be growing increasingly sick of the high inflation and new taxes that will be imposed to pay directly into the hands of those who refuse to work. In other words America is on track to becoming another socialist third world country.
All of this was avoidable:
Listen, the state of the world is clearly not good right now. We have Russia waging ware, the global food supply chain failing, and China threatening Taiwan!…
America is on the verge of being forced to turn to heavy cuts and tighting expenses like never before. All because of greedy politicians, who are running our government! We see inflation rising, crime running wild, and it will not slow down until we get out and vote to remove the socialist, now!
Theres lies ,damned lies and democrats ,it will reduce nothing !
Love how YouTube has to link the climate change wikipedia page, implying that if you don’t support this, then you hate the environment.
Actually these stupid bozos think that people are dumb (since they always poll dems) and so they have to explain to us what climate change really is. The only path to true knowledge and science is open debate NOT censorship!!!!
Another big Honey Pot.
CNBC is Orwellian propaganda you can really really trust this time
You are correct, you are missing the point! We do have other energy saving programs available now but we have decided to fund more oil companies instead which is why if we divert funds from those companies and put them into the renewable energies, every day people’s utility bills will go down. Please stop feeding into the big companies pockets with this nonsense you’re claiming. And before you claim I don’t know anything, I am a financial analyst.
Those in Congress who are millionaires could care less about the people.
*IT SUBSIDIZES THE RICH TO BE ABLE TO BUY MORE ELECTRIC CARS!* WHY SHOULD OUR TAX MIONEY GO TO THE RICH???!!!!
how exactly is supposed to lower inflation?
Will someone please explain to me how any of this is going to increase supply and reduce demand (basic inflation reduction equation)?
The goal is to expand government and loot the taxpayer/treasury.
Taxes are going up….let’s face the facts..this is what happens , when you idiot democrats, vote for these clowns
No higher energy costs r not driving inflation, period. The answer is seriously that simple lol.
Liberalism is the new downes syndrome
This is what you get when one party decides they are going to do nothing for the American people. We have one party that has checked out of trying to provide any meaningful policy for Americans and is focused on criminalizing abortions, zero gun control, non existent election fraud and two years after an election are still whining about the election being stolen… This government will never work if you don’t have meaningful debate and compromise but that seems to be exactly what they want as long as one of there own is not occupying the white house.
This is exactly what was meant when they said “Build Back Better”. How do you like it now?
INVESTMENTS IN SOLAR ROOFING CREDITS, CLEAN ENERGY. MINIMAL TAXES ON BILLION DOLLAR BUSINESSES IS OK WITH ME. ITS ABOUT TIME THEY PAY THEIR SHARE.
A spending bill to fight inflation. Ludicrous.
Democratic Party is very generous with our money.
It’s a zero-sum game; a victory for democrat politicians is a loss for America. Too bad the January 6th patriots didn’t finish the job.
AFTER COVID, PEOPLE GRATEFUL THEY CAN BUY HEALTHCARE.
How do Americans still get tricked by Bill names? Did you not all learn your lesson with the Patriot act and the Affordable Care Act? How many times do you need to get burned by this?
We will never see that money again.
Enjoy your poverty and food rations.
They should tax the hell of out of news anchors. They all repeat the same thing why do we need so many? Unless we tax them all.
it’s ok what the politicians do… but what will be the PEOPLE RESPOND TO THIS ? I HOPE KICK THEM ALL OUT WHERE THEY BELONG …TO THE DUMP….
This bill will cost increased inflation and the US economy will see it’s 3rd 1/4 of decline to be posted right before the mid terms LOL How will the Democrats lie and claim 3, 1/4’s of negative growth is not a recession?
Good that the Ukrainians are deserting. The war is not about them. Now let the cowardly US/NATO fighters come out into the open so that it can be clear who is being clobbered and for what reason in the Ukraine.
Imagine being so F ratarded, you not only believe climate change is anything other than natural yearly seasons, but it is one of the worlds top issues. . .
And how will Biden pay for this new Bill as well as th ones before it? I hear Biden plans to hire 80,000 new IRS agents to squeeze every drop of blood he can out of the American tax payer while big business and tech co’s who have donated to the democrats go scott free
Screw this govt, everyone who voted for this in congress can pay for it themself. No taxation without representation is coming back. And you don’t pass as taxpayers representation anymore just because you pretend to to get elected.
A win for Democrats when it should be a win for everyone in our country and its not. The president is supposed to be the leader of ALL American people. He has ruined our country, caused inflation, gas prices are at an all time high, formula shortages, hostile relations with other countries, and the economy is the worst it has ever been next to the Great Depression. But the Democrats will still say how Biden is the best president we have ever had alongside Obama. All they ever say in defense is something about Trump. Get TF over Trump already and start worrying about what the guy you voted in to office is doing to our country. He is corrupt and so is his son and the speaker of the house, Pelosi. Between her husband’s DUI getting thrown out after a last minute judge swap the day before his hearing and insider trading that they made millions from, trust me, they do not care about the American people. I can’t even get into JB and HB. Their crimes would make this essay into an dam book.
The title of this post is the most misleading I’ve seen in a long time. If the Dems want to improve our energy security, they’d let us once again become the #1 oil producer and cut the climate change BS (which no one believes anyway).
Can’t wait for my tax increase! Thanks Joe!
Be careful – speaking out against the administration is horrible for your career. C u at fox next year.
Total Garbage
The do know China’s economy is failing to the point to where not even their leader can save their nation, not like he gave a damn about it in the first place.
CNBC needs to stop being so Democrat Bias! The show is supposed to be a business/stock show. If I wanted political pro DEMS show I would watch MSNBC!
Business Media are like drug dealers complaining about enforcement. What’s the cost of natural disasters ripping the country to shreds. 🤡🤡
What a fucking joke
Impeach Biden ASAP
The female commentator seriously misrepresents the nature of the bill, and what Senator Schumer actually said. Sure, he said that the Inflation Reduction Act will improve the world for “future generations.” But he also said that the Act would “create millions of jobs”–which will _all_ be for the _current_ generation.
We desperately need those jobs—and if the Republicans had had their way. we would not have them on the way.
Im gonna use my Credit Card to pay off my Credit Card – Democrats
Lol more money stolen by democrats can’t wait till next year’s trillion they need to save the earth .
How can you lunatics at CNBC actually try to spin this in a positive way? This stupid bill will make everything worse. I LOATHE Democrats. They are not competent enough to govern a HOA in a Nashville suburb/
So these people obviously are shills for the oil companies. Everyone seems to forget that the oil came on this very network and were asked if they were going to increase productivity in order to reduce cost at the pump and they said, I’m paraphrasing, Nah we are making way to much money as it stands and our investors really like that so Americans can go f themselves. Some people might argue that they have a right to do that and I agree they do, but they don’t have the right to pretend that they couldn’t solve this problem themselves while also making record profits albeit slightly lower record profits. No they chose maximum profit over the needs of the American people and now those very people are arguing that the oil companies need more. Sheep, all of them, just waiting to get fleeced. It’s sad really.
This is burnt money. Such waste!
This is such trash!!!!
This is to crush the US people and it definitely will
The only Debts is gonna decrease is in the Democrats pockets !!
The corrupt u s. Government laughs at their braindead sheep
Near half a TRILLION dollars if political pork to be handed out So much for being the party if the people. That’s now gone and we definitely own inflation now. Why would anyone ever vote for us again.
30+ trillion in debt as America continues crumbling so they passed another money laundering Bill. Good for the corrupt politicians and businesses where this money will flow back and forth enriching themselves. Politicians send taxpayer money to businesses and the businesses send part of that money back to the politicians who first gave them the taxpayers money.
this isn’t going to benefit anyone.
U.S. National Debt- 31 trillion
U.S. Household Debt- 17 trillion
Total U.S. Debt- 48 trillion
Debt per person- $137,142
Figured with a U.S. population of 350 million.
Family of 3- $411,426
Family of 4- $548,568
Family of 5- $685,710
Are you a wealthy enough to cover this because the bank always comes calling so don’t cry when you’re foreclosed upon. They have said you will own nothing and now you know how they’ll take everything.
This bill helps noone.
Should be called the TREASON BILL
On a unrelated note I hear the best way to put out a fire is to smother it with gasoline – the US Congress probably.
Welcome to the sh*t show
Stop printing money, none of this is free. Every American is paying for these goods and services with the reduction in spending power, savings accounts are being made worthless if you have liquid cash.
It’s going to be difficult to undue the mess the radical left has created, but it will begin in November.
It’s a bunch of do nothing political Bull shit in a political year..
So.. they are going to reduce inflation, by the Gvt force spending money – which causes inflation! OK! :O
How do “I” get some of the free money?
_WE ARE DOOOOOMED, get ready for a depression_
What a train wreck.
We keep sending money to Ukraine! It’s not a little bit. Can anyone answer that!!?!! Insanity! People are on to the scam!
These reporters are ignorant..
Economy not too bad, in 6 months supply will be mostly resolved. High dollar and two negative gdp means ( less export and more import)
We just passed the ” chips act”( fighting against China. Factories being built in usa = tsmc, Samsung and intell. Last month asml agrees not to sell lithography machines to China. 2 months ago biden went to Korea and Japan, he could not go to Taiwan ( Taiwan is not recognized as an independent country), that is why Pelosi went there.
Do your research….
Small minds blame democrats or republicans when the reality is we have one political party and its the Rich screw the poor party. Stop being suckers. Ever notice how when too big to fail corporations need billions the vault cant be opened fast enough. But when it comes to education, health care, our own infrastructure we cant afford it. $2 trillion in Afganistan went to military contracts. Republican-Democrat-Democrat-Republican-Democrat.
Democrat Doublespeak
How dose 272.5 million dollars to native American combating inflation
A misnomer if ever there was one since this bill and the $$$$$ it spends will further fuel inflation.
Now Congress wants to pass an “Inflation Reduction Act” disguised as a Climate Bill that calls for $80 Billion and 87,000 IRS AGENTS!
Any member of Congress, from either party, that votes in favor of the “Bidens Inflation Reduction Act” needs to be VOTED OUT OF OFFICE in November! This act calls for the hiring of 87,000 more IRS AGENTS/AUDITORS in an already bloated Federal Government! Rest assured that these agents will NOT BE going after the real crooks… The Joe Biden Crime Family, Hunter, or the corrupt Clinton Global initiative, Politicians, Wealthy Donors, or the Politically connected. These Agents will be going after the hard-working taxpaying citizens, the middle class, and the poor who cannot afford tax accountants/attorneys to challenge the IRS judgments. America needs to start taking action against the “THUGS” doing their best to destroy our country! Subpoenas and Arrests are warranted towards the slime in the Government representing the deep state!
The fact that You in the media ALLOW democrats to call bills whatever they want even if it has nothing to do with what the bill actually does is ridiculous! Image if a republican Bill for more weapons was called the” PEACE Increase bill”!! you would never call it that you would make every effort to say the name is not accurate but this inflation INCREASING BILL is pushed with the name false name.
Cnbc is a left wing organization, that says alot!
they raided trump as distraction so biden’s controllers can pass the inflation act hire n arm IRS $80 billion/yr bribe the republicans with 21% pay increase so they can attack trump supporters with the army of weaponized IRS just pure evil, while homeless are starving to death in tents. only cost Dubai $80 billion to build we can end homeless give them jobs n homes. evil people. trump supporters they are coming for u protect yourself.
how is fighting climate change reduce inflation what bs.
