Spoken like someone who thinks money grows on trees.

Wow what an excellent retort, I must now go back and reconsider my entire belief system and everything I've ever learned /s. But on a more serious note, money does practically grow on trees when viewed from the government's perspective.

:Looks at record inflation of the past two years: No, I’m pretty sure there is a cost that will eventually be paid.

Inflation was caused by a combination of supply chain disruptions (mostly this) and corporate profiteering (less this). It had little to nothing to do with government actions. Read some nonpartisan literature on the topic before you come back.

Wow you certainly cited some excellent sources there. Based on your well educated and certainly unbiased expertise I’m sure printing unlimited money by the government won’t have negative consequences. There can’t be any examples of real world bad monetary policy that has nothing to do with US partisan politics…
