> debt fueled hundreds of billion dollar corporate wellfare
I get it. However...
I'm totally on board with government investment and industrial policy. Like The New Deal, race to the moon, highways, waterworks, etc. IRA, by any other name, is industrial policy and massive investment.
IRA is about 1/3rd the scope of Build Back Better. Pretty much cut & paste. All the programs they could sneak thru reconciliation, because of stupid Senate budget rules.
There's always objectionable specifics. Like the carve out for Manchin's new pipelines. But that's politics. And they're a tiny fraction of the whole.
