First, the infrastructure bill came out of the center, not the left (although it is fairly popular across the entire spectrum). Second, I don't see many people expounding the individual benefit from the infrastructure bill period—seems like a blatant strawman.
> Two-thirds of the jobs in the infrastructure bill will go to men: black men as much as white men, and Hispanic men a little bit more, because they’re so represented in the construction industry.
If I perceived the government as only capable of offering jobs and no other support I would also be pissed and feel alienated. I don't see much evidence that this is how people view the world outside of the Brookings institute.
