On 2/15/2023, Joe Biden traveled to Maryland to deliver remarks on his economy. Biden spoke at a meeting of the IBEW Local 26 union in Lanham, Maryland. 80-year-old Joe Biden referred to Democrat Wes Moore, Maryland’s first black governor as “boy” during his remarks. “And you got a helluva new governor in Wes Moore, I tell ya,” Biden said. “He’s the real deal and the boy looks like he still play.” “He’s got some guns on him.” Recall, Joe Biden called a black advisor “boy” during a FEMA briefing in August 2021.
President Joe Biden said his economic plan was working in the major set piece speech, soon after economists warned that the United States is on track to add almost $19 trillion to the national debt in the next decade. The numbers will increase Republican demands for spending cuts as deficits increase amid rising costs for interest payments, the military, and veterans’ healthcare as well as recent investment in clean energy and semiconductors. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office said annual budget deficits will average $2 trillion between 2024 and 2033.
Undaunted, Biden set out what he sees as an economic success story. “Gas prices are down $1.60 gallon, they’re gonna come down further from the peak and inflation is coming down” he told an audience, “Take home pay for workers has gone up over the last several months. We got more to do but I’m telling you the Biden economic plan is working”
He used the occasion to take aim at Republican plans to cut spending. That sets up a clash over raising the nation’s $31.4 trillion debt limits, which Republicans say they will only allow if it is coupled with reductions in spending. Biden accused Republicans of pushing an agenda that amounted to a giveaway to the super-wealthy, “How are they going to make these numbers not add up? Here’s the deal – if Republicans try to take away people’s health care, increase costs for middle-class families or push Americans into poverty, I’m going to stop them,” he said. In 1995, Joe Biden Argued For Sunsetting ALL Federal Programs — INCLUDING Social Security, Medicare.
Since taking control of the House last month, Republicans have passed measures to reverse or pare back Biden-backed laws, including the Inflation Reduction Act. Biden insists his Administration’s plans will cut U.S. debt by another $2 trillion on top of $1.7 trillion in reductions already made, while keeping his promise not to raise taxes for anyone earning less than $400,000 a year.
“Let’s be crystal clear about what’s happening,” he told a supportive union audience. “If you add up all the proposals that my Republican friends in Congress have offered so far, they would add another $3 trillion to the debt over 10 years.”
