Biden's test: Engineering economic boom in a partisan divide

(AP Photo/Andrew Harnik)BALTIMORE – When Joe Biden entered the White House as vice president, the economy was cratering. Biden returns to the White House as president a dozen years later with the economy battered and shaken by a pandemic. The investment bank Goldman Sachs estimates that growth this year could be 6.6% if part of Biden's stimulus plan passes.

For now, the Biden team is hoping to push through its stimulus with Republican support in the Senate.

In the U.S., authorities are pursuing an antitrust case against Google and lawmakers have proposed breaking up big tech companies. The government still needs to consult on how the digital markets unit will operate and approve legislation for it. Under the new code, tech companies would have to be more transparent about how they use consumers’ data.

But the Senate GOP bill has failed once before, and Trump himself says it's too puny. For months she has been promising a COVID relief package of more than $2 trillion stuffed with Obama-era stimulus ideas.
