Sen. Bernie Sanders countered fellow Sen. Joe Manchin with an op-ed on the right-wing outlet's website aimed at rebutting the West Virginia Democrat's falsehood-laden talking points against the Build Back Better Act. "Manchin, the Republicans, and corporate America say this bill will add to our national debt and make inflation worse. Not true," wrote Sanders, the chair of the Senate Budget Committee. "Unlike the bloated military budget that Manchin recently voted for, which adds $778 billion to the deficit this year alone and costs four times more than the Build Back Better Act over a 10-year period, the White House has said this bill is fully paid for" with tax hikes on the wealthy.

Manchin has voted for 11 consecutive military budgets, including the latest version of the National Defense Authorization Act, which the West Virginia Democrat approved without complaining about the price tag. "And to add insult to injury, this military budget came after we ended the longest war in recent U.S. history and was $25 billion more than what President Biden requested," the Vermont senator continued.

Looks like commie Jew Bernie pays the least

Sanders wrote, a reference to the Senate-passed Endless Frontier Act, which would lavish taxpayer subsidies on U.S. semiconductor firms. Sanders' Fox News op-ed came days after Manchin—appeared on the network's Sunday program to announce his opposition to the Build Back Better Act, a centerpiece of President Joe Biden's domestic policy agenda. "This is a no on this legislation," Manchin told Fox's Bret Baier. "We have inflation that basically could harm—really harm a lot of Americans and especially those who are most needy and having a hard time struggling right now." But economists have disputed Manchin's narrative that the $1.75 trillion Build Back Better package would fuel rising inflation... In fact, experts have warned that not passing the legislation could harm the nation's fragile economic recovery... "While the $2 trillion in spending would be unlikely to worsen inflation if it were to become law," Klein concluded, "I believe it could do a lot to materially address these challenges America faces."

Joe Biden Not Paying the Soldiers He Expects to Protect Him & His Kind

American service members will likely be in a worse financial situation next year because of soaring inflation, despite President Joe Biden authorizing a Pentagon-wide press increase earlier this week, a former Army Major General said on Wednesday

John G. Ferrari, now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, told Fox that 'for Troops at the lowest part of the pay scale, the cost of gas and food may drive some deeper into debt, or they may rely more on food banks
On Monday Biden signed the National Defense Authorization Act, an annual must-pass piece of legislation that sets the next year's Pentagon budget.

This year's spending bill included a 2.7 percent pay increase across both military and civilian Defense Department employees.

But Ferrari feared it may not negate the rising prices at the pump and the grocery store.

'The situation is serious now because we have not seen this level of inflation in decades,' he said.

Earlier this month the Labor Department released data that inflation had risen 6.8 percent in November from the year prior, a 40-year record high.

Soaring prices are hitting Americans hard in essential categories, with groceries overall up 6.2 percent in the 12-month window ending in November. Steak jumped 25.6 percent, bread rose 4 percent and fresh fruit prices were up 5.8 percent

Regular unleaded gasoline soared 60.1 percent from 2020, and new cars and truck were 11.1 percent more expensive. The cost of used cars rose 31.4 percent.

Excluding the volatile food and energy components, the CPI rose 0.5 percent last month after gaining 0.6 percent in October. The so-called core CPI jumped 4.9 percent on a year-on-year basis after increasing 4.6 percent in October.

It's not clear to what extent inflation projections were factored into the latest defense budget, but Ferrari believes Biden's previously stated goal for a 2023 budget even smaller than the one that recently passed won't do enough.

'The president will need to increase 2023 defense spending from his previously announced level of $756B to about $806B to account for inflation overall or else readiness of the force will suffer,' the former general said

 Military wages are generally set based off the last year's Employment Cost Index, which tracks yearly salaries against private sector rates.

Unless specifically mandated otherwise by Congress, that means every year's military pay increase is tied back by the previous year's economy -- and that this pay raise didn't account for the soaring prices seen under President Joe Biden.

Their pay raise will go into effect just weeks after the Defense Department announced that service members in 15 metropolitan areas and 21 non-metropolitan counties will have their cost-of-living allowance cut off at the start of 2022.

Roughly 48,000 troops are set to lose their Continental United States Cost-of-Living Allowance, including military members in Washington, DC, according to Stars and Stripes

The Pentagon will still pay about $8.5 million to roughly 6,000 service members living in six metro areas and 20 non-metropolitan counties within the continental United States in 2022


Clearly Joe Biden is not making himself popular and isn't doing a good job!
