georgia republican congressman buddy carter he's a member of the house budget energy and commerce committee. congressman what you think the prospects are? democrats like to see trim down "build back better" what do you think? >> certainly we all understand talk about cutting back you talk about cutting back three and half trillion to 1.75 trillion actually all they did is they cut the length of the program. the congressional budget office it's still going to cost $5 trillion is still going to add $3 trillion toward that bird just saying you're going to cut back the length of the programs is not going to decrease the cost of these programs. that is a people of got to remember. i'm a big fan of joe manchin. my christmas present came early this year. i'm glad joe manchin represents west virginia sinnott the left. >> the president said this is not going to add any debt to the nation's ongoing debt problem. >> how someone could believe that is simply beyond me. i do not understand why this president is not working that is the supply chain issues it is a worker shortage, inflation, all the things we should be concentrating on. the present seems to be ignoring these things is that is going to push forward on build back broke plan is going to add more taxes to the working class in the middle class is going to put us more into debt going to cause more government intrusion into our lives. things is trying to do he should be be focusing on other things. >> the president democrats hold the presidency. that got the senate, they got control the house of representatives. what does that say to you in a bill like this fizzles? >> there's no question about it. it's obvious they've got so much in there it's going to cause more harm than good. there's no question about that is going to add fuel to the fire of inflation marty see what's happened with inflation it will only do more for inflation ways billions of dollars on green your deal initiatives and issues we don't need to be

the president said he was going to get it passed he could not do it, why not? >> is too radical and liberal of a plan even for the moderate democrats who do not understand it's going to add to the national debt. it's going to raise inflation and taxes on working-class and middle-class. they all understand that's going to be the result of this. >> there is a version of this? chuck schumer the senate majority leader said he will schedule vote for next month to think there is a version of this that can be trimmed out enough somebody like joe manchin would go along with it? >> if he can come up with the clan that will not incur more debt will not raise taxes on middle class and the working class will not cause government intrusion into people's lives perhaps it could get something passed. in the form isn't right now he cannot get this passed its irresponsibility in the form of the president. jon: interesting one of the proposals will get abner scooby. >> that's the last thing we need

replacement for that the "build back better" replacement what would you tell them? >> i would tell them that would build the wall the wall of the southern border is what we need to do that's the infrastructure we need right now. people are concerned what's going on at that border. even though the democratic leadership appears not to be concerned about it. people in this country are concerned about it. a bill was passed and good things that it also had a lot of bad in it as well. at the same time we cannot afford to raise taxes on the middle class and working class. we cannot afford to have more intrusion into the lives of our people. jon: is that the case let a material that was to go into the walls are even paid for and now is sitting on the border rusting? >> absolutely been down
