President Biden and the Senate, plan to get around budget caps using an "emergency" loophole. CATO Director of Budget Policy Romina Boccia writes about that. She explains: "Call it an emergency, done. Spend the money on whatever you want." Sadly, that's how it works in Washington. It gets worse. The budget caps that politicians want to evade never even cut spending to begin with. They merely slowed the planned INCREASE in spending. You can watch the video above to see what will happen if government keeps spending like crazy -- and also see a possible solution.

Progressives attack capitalism because it lets some become very rich while others stay poor. ----------------------- To get our new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ________________ Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez call such a system “immoral.” But Yaron Brook, chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute says the opposite is true. He points out that the poor were much poorer before capitalism: “We have basically made about $2 a day for 100,000 years. In other words ... we could eat what we farmed and that was it,” Brook tells me. “And then something amazing happened about 250 years ago.” Around that time, a few countries tried capitalism. For the first time, people were allowed to profit from private property. That changed everything. Brook explains: “250 years ago we suddenly discovered the value of individual freedom. We suddenly discovered the value of leaving individuals free to think, to innovate, to produce without asking for permission, without getting the state to sign off on it and we call that the industrial revolution. We got much, much, much richer and it's hard to imagine how much richer we got ... electricity, running water, the things we all take for granted today, but we didn't have 150 years ago ... and yes, some people complain about inequality, but everybody got richer. Even the poor got richer.”

The betting odds say a Trump vs Biden rematch is probable. That’s sad, since polls also show most Americans don’t like either man. ———— To get our new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ———— There is good reason people do not like them. Trump and Biden are both corrupt liars. I’m used to disagreeing with a president’s policies. But our two most likely choices are just embarrassing. Here’s my new video about that:
