Joe Manchin has been a lightning rod lately catching all kinds of heat for his pushback on the $3.5t 'Build Back Better Plan' and in this episode, I want to look at one of his points called 'means testing'. Joe took a lot of heat for suggesting this but the fact is, it's already being done on some of the provisions in the $3.5t plan.. so, it's not an outrageous point he is making here. After all, we need to listen to Joe's pushback as a form of constructive criticism because if we don't roll out this plan in a way that makes sense, we're opening ourselves to Republican scrutiny on issues like means testing that could hurt Democrats in the coming mid term elections if we're not cautious. Why means test some provisions and not others? Let's take a closer look.
