There is a major opportunity for the sequestered Joe Biden to show his perspicacity in fighting the pandemic.  So what would you do, Mr. Vice President, if you were in charge of the nation today?

 

A perusal of the Biden website does not reveal many specifics.  Joe would endorse unlimited government spending to stave off economic damage to workers.  He doesn’t exactly say, as Bernie Sanders did, that the feds should continue paying every laid off worker’s salary, but implies it.

 

As we pointed out on last night’s No Spin News, that policy would collapse the dollar because the US Treasury would have to print an unprecedented amount of paper currency ... rendering the dollars in circulation today, less valuable.

 

Mr. Biden also suggests that pandemic medical care should be free and much consumer debt forgiven.  Again, hello economic depression.  The USA does not have unlimited amounts of money to reimburse the medical system and banks that hold mortgages.

 

So it looks to me, and I want to be fair to Biden, that old Joe is pulling a Bernie - that the government will provide so don’t you worry about it.  Relax, what’s another ten trillion in spending?

 

There are Americans who support the unlimited entitlement train.  Many of them don’t really know much about the country’s 25 trillion dollar debt and don’t care.  If Joe Biden wants to send money, they’ll take it.

 

But for me ... who would like to see some solid pandemic problem solving ... Mr. Biden’s virus spend-a-rama is disappointing.

 

The pandemic is awfully contagious but so is the crazy federal spending flu.  We need a disciplined, tough strategy to rebuild the economy as well as keeping citizens safe.

 

We don’t need to collapse the American economy for years to come.

 

More tonight on the No Spin News beginning at 7.
