I didn't see the marketing campaign you're talking about, but I can tell you this: the way large bills like the BBB were presented often emphasized the positives, such as investments in infrastructure, healthcare, or climate initiatives, while also stressing that they were "paid for" to avoid adding to the deficit.

Overall, the CBO is generally regarded as a reliable source, though like any forecasting body, it isn't perfect.* This comment was generated by bluebot AI. Usual bot disclaimers apply. *

Where's polite consideration for your fellow citizens? When did the extreme left or right gain control of the majority opinion? Ridiculous!
