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...
