MSNBC, ABC, CNN realize Inflation Reduction Act doesn’t reduce inflation after bill is passed: ‘Marketing’

CNN's John Harwood admitted the bills name was a 'marketing ploy' after it was passed

 
1. No thinking person believed it would reduce inflation.
2. This is a necessary admission in order to call this bill a win down the road. Expect it to be known by a new name by November. Otherwise it will be too easy for Rs to say "see it didn't bring inflation down, just like we told you."

I wouldn't so much call it "admitting" as pivoting to reframe the narrative.

So you are saying that the democrat voters are so stupid that just labeling a bill with a name “ inflation reduction act “ is enough to make them think they are fighting inflation.

No. Naming it that is enough for other Dems to lie about and defend it as such though. Kinda like how every Dem said, "There's nothing Biden can do about gas prices. Not his fault." Then immediately praised Biden when gas prices went down. Dumb, dishonest shit like that.
 
Uh oh...

But not everyone will feel the benefits of the new bill equally, analysts and advocates warn. People living in neighborhoods that are already dealing with a lot of pollution fear they will face more harm and climate risk, not less. And that could deepen existing environmental inequalities and lock in decades of unnecessary illness and suffering for people who are already marginalized.

"There are some parts [of the law] that are good, and there are some parts that are really bad," says Mijin Cha, a professor at Occidental College who studies how to make the transition to a low-carbon economy fairer for workers and communities. "And the parts [of the law] that are really bad are pretty significant."

"We are sitting right now with a lot of contradictions. While [the bill] does designate some funding for disadvantaged communities, it's also subsidizing fossil fuels," says Juan Jhong-Chung, the climate director at the Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition. "It feels like what the bill is giving with one hand, it's taking with the other."

For example, Jhong-Chung says the new law could pay for air monitoring in Southwest Detroit, where he lives and where industrial air pollution makes people sick. But at the same time, the law invests in the fossil fuel industry, which could help those industrial facilities operate for decades to come.

"It feels like we're being sacrificed, like we're being left behind,"Jhong-Chung says . "It doesn't feel good that this is the best we can get."

Why not call it the cure for cancer act, that would be just as honest.

Well, there is SOME chance that regardless of the bill, inflation will subside... then they can still claim victory.

Politics isn't about doing anything good, it's about claiming victory and keeping your job.

This is not a good time in history for Republicans to chide Democrats for gullibility. Frankly, the aggressive and ongoing attempt to destroy our government makes it difficult for me to care much about any ordinary political issues.

That shitty piece of legislation will do nothing to reduce inflation, it may if anything help spur inflation.

The Biden Administration has opened pandoras box regarding inflation.

The Lefts outlandish spending has created this mess and there is no end in sight.
