Hot Comments Today: Biden signs climate, drug price bill into law, another win for him amid crisis for U.S. democracy

At a moment when American democracy looks increasingly vulnerable, President Biden and Democrats pointed to their third landmark bill as evidence that American government is working once again.

A nearly $400-billion investment in clean energy subsidies will mark the United States' most serious effort yet to combat climate change. A cap on prescription drug costs will ensure that seniors on Medicare pay no more than $2,000 a year for their medications. And an extension on COVID-19 pandemic subsidies will lower healthcare costs for 13 million Americans.

First thing these IRS agents need to do is audit every member of congress and the whole Biden family and the Clinton’s also while they’re at it! --- lover of life

This bill is riddled with things that won’t benefit the average person, but will benefit big pharmaceutical companies, the same ones that his family members have ties to. And the climate as well, peers and family members are set to profit from these bills while the American public has to deal with the ramifications once Biden is gone.--- Talk Hard

Get ready for more taxes on your money, higher energy costs and worse inflation. More audits coming because this army of IRS agents are going to have to have something to do. Only country that came out good on this bill was China because of the batteries for electric vehicles. “The Big Guy” had to take care of his buddies. This bill is a bold face LIE for the American people. --- Griffin

Just shows that is all the media has to do is report this in a Positive light and call it a Triumph and the sheep just follow!!!! This isn't good AT ALL!!! --- Saveyourself

Billions more spent, 86,000 new IRS agents, climate money, drug money, all to solve inflation? i’m no economist but I still know b******t when I see it. No doubt we will all just bend over and take it! --- Nonyo Business

Half the public doesn't want this. The other half have no clue as to what it is. I just feel like a prisoner in my own country. Kick these people out! --- Smiler Grogan
