Manchin has been nitpicking the Social spending bill all year and has explicitly said that he wants to wait, that there is enough money in the system without making inflation worse.

My view is quite simple and in complete agreement with Manchin: shore up SS and Medicare so the conservatives will not have the opportunity to cut these programs during the next secular bear and economic downturn.

No one cares at the moment, but you will care in a few years.
