They called it the Inflation Reduction Act. We don’t think anyone believed that it would do a thing to reduce inflation, and as soon as it was passed, the mainstream media began to refer to it as the $430 billion “climate, healthcare, and tax bill.” President Joe Biden said at a John Fetterman campaign rally that he’s spent “over a billion 200, a trillion, 200 billion dollars” to fight climate change.
Vice President Kamala Harris has some good news for us all waiting for inflation to drop: thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, we’ll be getting 66,000 electric mail trucks by 2028.
Thanks to funding from our Inflation Reduction Act, the U.S. Postal Service will have nearly 66,000 electric delivery trucks in communities by 2028.
This means cleaner air for communities and our nation's postal workers.

This single handily saved the Earth from climate change, thank you.

A complete joke and waste of time and money

Oh thanks for solving the problem you created

So no mail when the grid is down.

And those power plants that provide the electricity are powered by fossil fuels. Let’s put more strain on the grid
— Trace Hunt (@tracehunt) December 29, 2022
Except, what generates the electricity that will be used to charge that these electric trucks?

Tell me how that has anything to do with inflation. Go on. I'd love to hear this one.

Weird how the Inflation Reduction Act has absolutely nothing to do with reducing inflation
— Richie Tenenbaum (@BaumerTennis) December 29, 2022
How will this reduce inflation?
— Trent Whipple (@puppykick) December 29, 2022
Where is the inflation part?

It's like there's a complete disconnect between the government and our real world issues. It doesn't help that they have the media in their pocket to distract the public and evade any accountability.

I think there are more important things to focus on. Been to the border yet??
— Lisa McBay (@LJMcBay) December 29, 2022
Whatever.
PS: 5 million migrants have illegally crossed our border since you’ve been VP. Any comment about that? 🤔— SeldenGADawgs (@SeldenGADawgs) December 29, 2022
Read the room already. Jesus Christ lady.

If the government says this will happen by 2028, expect it maybe never. Just look at California’s bullet train to nowhere that cost billions.
