The f*** is this s*** about sending out socialist checks to americans?

Anyone want to elaborate on this talking point?

Why don't they reduce the national debt instead of giving the childish American public a check?

Well I'd like to point out for one that its impossible to reduce the national debt

It's not impossible, it's just setup so that it can never go away.
Once it was a lending nation, now it's a debter nation.

It's not possible under the Federal Reserve System

Right, that's what I said.

But steering back on topic...

Why is Doge talking about sending out socialist ""free"" money to tax payers?
(free as in money the people gave to the gov)

To even humor this, we saw this same crap during covid.
People wasted it on the stock market, toys, candy and vacations.
It doesn't stimulate the economy.

Drunk car salesman funnels money into homies businesses by taking money from the government and giving it to poor americans so they can spend.

so this is how it ends? the left dies in a whimper?

They are partly thinking that consumers spending money from the checks directly won’t be more inflationary than the government spending it. I disagree, in this case, but that’s their line of thinking.

Probably also testing waters to see how the public would react to such aid, should a recession begin shortly.

And finally to get a better PR and more support from regular people for their actions long term, once the post-election hype fades.

This would be my guesses.



Federal Reserve is not the system. Actually it’s not even the center of the current monetary system we live in. It’s a player in this system, with a moderate influence on how it evolves. Much smaller influence than people think.
