@georgetakei Trump could just send every citizen a cheque. #Australia did this during the global financial crisis. (Amazing how money can be found when it's needed.) Everyone got $1000 and went out and spent it, saving the economy from collapse.

@anne_twain @georgetakei They did that here during COVID, multiple times. It caused inflation.

The money they "find" comes out of your pocket, either by taxation or inflation. Now if you have a negative net worth, inflation might actually benefit you.

@mike805 @anne_twain Was it stagflation, or you know, just normal growth-based inflation?
