terry: i don't think so. think you get a reason we'll plan, but you don't get more and more and more. there are two problems here with the big bill, as i will call it, the longer-term bill. the first is that republicans won't accept speaker pelosi's dire to include noncovered ,pending for cities and states and democrats want except republicans' desires to put liability caps in for businesses so that trial lawyers can't just sue the pants off of anybody who might have a problem. those tend to be mutually exclusive, and those are the rocks upon which this is all foundering. and they will continue to founder, so it will be difficult. number two, what you have is a congress, the new congress will almost be evenly split. you've got a new house majority that is now four, and a smaller senate majority for republicans. so what you are really going to have to deal with his four coalitions. biden is going to have to work that hard just to get anything long-term, much less something big. behink the aspirations will outs
