The Club for Growth PAC looked at Sen. Joe Biden’s record on economic issues, and it is dismal. On every economic issue, Senator Biden has voted for more taxes, more spending, and bigger government.

Joe Biden has voted against every major tax cut and for numerous tax hikes. He is an avid supporter of pork barrel spending, supporting the Bridge to Nowhere in 2005 and winning the ignominious Porker of the Month award from Citizens Against Government Waste in January 2002. Biden has been reliably anti-trade and pro-government regulation. On school choice, he even voted against a vouchers program for low-income earners. Biden has also stood with the trial lawyers, voting against reasonable tort reform and voted against preventing the plundering of Social Security.

When it comes to economic issues, Joe Biden is as bad as it gets.
