Joe Biden will call for a moderate approach toward reviving the U.S. economy if elected president that includes spurring manufacturing and encouraging innovation, shelving for now the more ambitious proposals pushed by progressive Democrats, Bloomberg reports.
The Democratic nominee plans to deliver an economic speech on Thursday near his childhood hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, framing his argument for the rest of the campaign.
The outline of the plan covers three areas: A push to buy American and incentivizing American jobs, clean energy and the caring economy such as child and elder-care workers and domestic workers.

They can get on board with rebuilding America's foundation or get out of the way.
There is no more us & them in the wake of Trump.
That overused mantra is best laid to rest.
This massive undertaking will require give & take on all fronts. The petty bs no longer will find a place.
Follow Biden's lead, he'll never betray his country.

(53,778 posts)I'm betting that's some progressive writer's bit of editorializing and that the Biden camp never used that word in any releases.
Some have never let it go that their candidate didn't get our nomination. They still can't help damning with faint praise, even though it could cost us votes in the most critical election on our lives with us against the crooked,cowardly and corrupt repugs led by a narccissistic sociopath who more and more has moments of incoherence.

This plan is exactly how a solid foundation for our future is built.
Lay it brick by brick rather than a heap.
I trust this corargeous man completely.
With 300,000,000 + Americans looking to a leader in the aftermath of Trump's destruction, Biden will not abandon any one .
Too bad some have need to label, and call out. So we're 'progressive' vs. 'moderate?'

(15,325 posts)Fortunately, they will either join Biden & be a part of his incredible team, the brightest legacy for 2021 & the future, or they will remain a minority lobbing divisive slights from the sidelines. It's a small group & I believe they will geniunely want to be part of this new rebuild & secure their own legacy under Biden's guidance.
There will always be objectors & Biden, being the man he is, will let them speak too.
The path is up to them.
Joe Biden is probably the most reasonable & fair man to befriend.
His strength is his heart, empathy, & his knowing where his country came from & where it needs to be 5 & 10 years from now.
Somedays it's good to be Establishment....they just know things. 😎
Ya know?
