Last week, President Biden released a $6+ trillion budget proposal that would take the US to unprecedented levels of government spending and taxation. We already covered the major economic consequences this would have and how it would hurt everyday Americans. But new scrutiny of the fine print of Biden’s plan by the Wall Street Journal has revealed a bizarre detail that further undercuts its merits. The progressive argument in favor of government spending is supposed to be that it will help stimulate economic growth. But the White House’s own projections essentially concede that their big-spending plans won’t lead to growth over the long run.

It is a stark statement about Alexander Lukashenko’s thuggish dictatorship that it never even pretended to reform its security apparatus after the Soviet Union was dissolved. Instead, the local branch of the USSR’s State Security Committee (KGB) simply became the Belarus KGB in a transition so seamless they scarcely even changed the logo.
