Biden and the State of the Midterm Elections - WSJ Opinion

Mr. Biden’s speech then descended into a mind-numbing list of big-government proposals including a global minimum tax, a pandemic fraud prosecution chief, more apprenticeships, the Paycheck Fairness Act, a $15 minimum wage, more Pell grants, a child tax credit extension, community college grants, the PRO Act and more—each offered without priority or particular passion.

The delivery of this section was particularly flat. Most of the proposals didn’t get more than a name drop.

Even more disappointing is that I was sure he was building up to giving everyone a pony at the end, but it was the only thing he didn’t promise me!!
