Ep 140 - 'Pushing' Biden to 'The Left' w/ Sean and Jamie
Added 2021-04-21 15:46:54 +0000 UTCAh, a good old fashion news ep with Sean and Jamie!
First, we've reached pretty pass when the Wall Street Journal is penning diatribes about woke capitalism. Is it true, as they contend, that big business is.. anti-capitalist? What does this even fucking mean?
Next, President Biden has passed $2 trillion in stimulus and proposed another $2 trillion in infrastructure spending. Did it work? Did 'we' push Biden 'to the left'? We break down the spending and talk about what it really means. (Spoiler: the left wing of capital is desparate!)
