Biden’s $1 trillion investment in clean energy, semiconductors and infrastructure is a model for economic growth. It is stunning that the most successful private-public collaboration in history — one that is transforming cities, states and regions — has gotten so little coverage in the media.

1. It’s gotten plenty of coverage, most of the impacts of it are going to be felt for years in the future, which obviously didn’t help the Democrats a month ago.

2. It’s because billionaires own the media and this plan doesn’t lower their taxes.

3. The Federal government should always step in when the private sector fails.

4. If the news covered this shit instead of focusing on identity politics the Dems would have won by a landslide. 

   The “left” always shoots itself in the foot.

5. I mentioned this in a different sub Reddit, I didn’t hear about half of this or at least the extensiveness of this. Which is proof that there wasn’t a lot of coverage on it. I follow the green/ EV stuff quite a bit.

   I heard tons about the border and about trans in sports, I heard about every little stumble Biden made when walking. I heard lots of Trump allegedly smelling like shit and wearing diapers. I probably heard more about Hunter Biden and his case and his dick than I heard about this stuff.

   Sad really, really sad.

   It is all about fear now.

6. It’s because stuff like this doesn’t get clicks so it doesn’t make money.

   People can blame conservative media, the left screwing up, etc. but it all comes down to outrage makes money and positive stories do not.

7. It’ll get more coverage when Trump is in office taking credit for all of the positives it provides.

8. it got so little coverage bc the repubs hate the dems and the dems hate biden so it fell between the political divide. and by dems i mean the kamala coup gang.

9. Liberal billionaires need to buy more media companies

10. Billionaires who own the media don’t want this, that’s why

11. I’m all for green energy to reduce carbon emissions but in what way is it a driver for economic growth? Also, how can you possibly call it a success when it will clearly take years to see any results.

    Anyone saying the IRA is either amazing or terrible is misinformed or has an agenda. At the moment, it’s pretty unclear what the long term impacts will really be.

12. The media reads corporate press releases and is there to get clicks. It doesn’t surprise me that the things that are improving people’s lives go unnoticed.

13. The demonising of Biden by the right wing media is a fckin disgrace.

    And the left wing media is so obsessed with Trump they give him even more airtime and it drowns out anything good.

    Such a shame ! I think Biden’s legacy will grow over time
