Democrats are just outright pillaging the country.
God forbid that ANYONE give money to people in need. Corporations and the wealthy are the only ones entitled to "free shit". Giving money to people makes them lazy.
You're not entirely wrong on this one, but one question, what is a corporation made of?
Gasoline? 87 Octane, not "name brand".
$2.89 at 5:30 this morning as I passed the gas station.
$3.09 when I returned from grocery shopping.
Exhausted from racing to stay ahead of the crew increasing the shelf prices only to learn that the "new" and "improved" (read: "higher" prices) were already in the checkout computers.
Front end manager says the chain's M.I.S. department is perfecting software that will raise the prices of items with product codes ending in odd numbers on Mondays, Wednesdays qne Fridays. UPC's ending in even numbers on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. They're arguing over whether on Sundays to leave all prices alone or just increase all prices at once.
Plan is to leave the percentage increase programmable up to midnight each night so a management team call review what Xiden said that day and how much room that gives them.
Think I'm kidding? Show on any three or rour (3 or 4, liberals) successive days; look at the UPC codes and prices.
Almost none of this gift to corporations ended up in the hands of workers. 40% of this money went straight to the shareholders.
According to dragonlady shareholder's aren't people.Almost none of this gift to corporations ended up in the hands of workers. 40% of this money went straight to the shareholders.
OMG!!!! That's horrible!!!
What did the shareholders do with it?

No way of knowing what? The more bonds the government prints, the less interest investors are willing to pay.But if we print 30 trillion dollars, we can pay off the debt, right?No one knows for sure. We were certain of hyperinflation because of QE after the Meltdown.
If there is inflation it could be long and rough or it could be spiky and short lived.
No one knows for sure. Especially those whose perceptions are distorted by partisan ideology.
To be fair I think this is one of the times that it's not partisan ideology to realise that spending trillions and giving every endless free stuff would equate to hyperinflation and interest rates that will sink the economy. It's economics 1-0-1 that the biggest dummies like myself can understand.
I do agree though that hyperbole and ideology clouds folks views at the best of times, tho.
I have been screaming this on this site and I get crickets.
My only conclusion is that most Americans are really fucking dumb.
I have laid out the specific math....the response I get is...DERP!
BLACK LIVES MATTER!
As we become Greece.
This Republic is about to fall.
It's only a matter of time before the rest of the world realizes that they're subsidizing our cushy way of life and stops accepting the worthless pieces of paper we send them for the goods they actually create. We'll become a third world country overnight and you can say 'goodbye' to that 'thin veil of civility' that we're only barely holding on to as it is...
Wtf? You seriously need to go look at the difference between monetary policy and fiscal policy.
Debt is financed by gov bonds, meaning SOMEONE IS BUYING IT.
How much debt is too much?
"Too much" for what? For investors to stop buying American bonds?
If you knew anything at all you would know there is no way of knowing that.
It's as simple as that.

Yep. They are barbarians on a rape and plunder spree. This country will be unrecognizable after 4 years of Biden.
i mispoke. i mean the higher the interest rate they will demand. Rates are low now, but they are headed up. i recall what happened when Jimmy Carter was president. We had mortgage rates as high as 12%.No way of knowing what?

How is it possible for you to be sooo wrong, soo often?
Bonds are "printed" when they are bought ignoramus, they are just an "I-owe-you" note with interest the investors buy.
Interest rates are at historic lows, so obviously investors are VERY willing to buy at very low rates despite rapidly increasing national debt.

Yep, it was 12% interest despite very low national debt levels, so maybe you need to rethink your oversimplified understanding of that relationship.
Debt matters and ignoring it may one day end in a disaster for America, but to know exact debt level it happens at is more a matter of opinion than fact.
Do a search on this site and look at how many times I have posted about this. Its simple fucking math. Yes, I have a degree in finance and 25 years experience in corporate finance in the tech industry...but any fucking 4th grader can understand this math DOES NOT FUCKING WORK.
My lefty friends have said for years they dont care about the debt as long as they keep getting free shit. IT....IS....NOT...SUSTAINABLE.
Diversification into counter market investments is crucial now. And by the way...the Biden Gestapo will shut down cyrptocurrencies. It will happen. The Fed will demand it.
I tried to sell a house in CA in 1984 and the buyer put a contingency on the ability to obtain an 18% conventional loan. The deal fell through because he couldn't find the loan.

Inflation was out of hand in the late 70's due in large part to the end of the war in Vietnam in 75. Gerald Ford had the WIN program that was an acronym for "Whip Inflation Now." High interest rates followed until Reagan's tax act of 1986 and soon after that, interest rates fell, wages kept pace with low inflation for whatever reason. I don't know what the exact influencing factors were as I am not an economist--but that is what happened as a point of history.Carter was printing money to pay for his spending, dumbass.i mispoke. i mean the higher the interest rate they will demand.

What do you believe a federal reserve note is? It says it on the bill. Good for all debts. public and private. It is negative money. After it is loaned out 9 time with a ten per cent reduction each time it is loaned and paid off with interest each time...the dollar disappears. As written in the 1913 law the system depends on loans to expand. But we have been living in a different world for some time.

That is why the democrats are for infrastructure spending to improve the efficiency of our economy while creating higher paid jobs. Our current inflation seems due more to the disruption to the supply (side) chain than due to the equivalent to more QE.What do you believe a federal reserve note is? It says it on the bill.
