trump started printing money during an unprecedanted employment and business crisis, airlines and much critical business would have likely collapsed in months without that intervention.

then trump wanted to do it again probably just to get reelected or something dumb but at that point the mid-point of republic thought was not really eager for more stimulus.

and now at this point the economy is fully humming along and there is no employment or business crisis, business actually have more work than they can hire for and yet democrats still want stimulus. so i can only conclude that any stimulus is ostensibly for "crisis" but really its just form of wealth redistribution since stimulus checks go not to the non-rich but will end up being paid for by the rich. so for democrat stimulus is now a form of policy implementation by a precedented and popular mechanism.

the reason for which trump started it are totally different than the reasons for which democrats want to continue it.

Government agencies dont allow authoritative sources to remark on their incompetence. See the last 2 years as a citation of that.

The problem of availability already exists because emergency services are abused on non-emergencies this stops those abuses freeing it up for real emergencies, no person no-matter how poor is going to balk at using an emergency service on an actual emergency cuz maybe they get charged 5 bucks if its not "emergency enough"

One is a real problem, actually experienced and only getting worse. One is a pretend problem that is only talked about and never experienced.

not sure why shouldnt be on the list, the IMF discussed and advocated it, and the Bangladeshi gov followed their lead.

the definition of a conspire is to "work together to someone else's detriment", im sure from the perpective of someone who didn't benefit from that economic development they "conspired".

> The Federal Reserve can, but the government cannot.

however every crisis for which the government feels it needs to print money it asks the federal reserve which appears to usually oblige them

their seperation to me seems just like some kind of circuit breaking control, but generally they will align to print money when they want, unless im missing something?

Why don’t people trust the media? Exactly this type of consistent ham fisted reasoning that any intelligent person can see right through which obviously demonstrates an agenda.

they actually like the fraud because they can use it to justify larger budgets.

do political things not start, get normalized, then serve as a foundation on which new trends can build?

As i was getting a flu shot, i saw a lone young guy enter a Walgreens near oakland with an empty duffel bag intent on stealing a few hundred dollars in deodorant and face cream. As he proceed to use his arms to shovel the first batch in, the security guard, one or two employs and a bystanders just started shaming him. "Dont do it!!", "Please no!!", "you can still walk out!!". They were screaming at him at the top of their lungs for 10 second from both ends of the aisle... and it worked! it was surreal but with the empty bag, He walked out distraught. The security guard let him pass out. I couldn't believe it, but he just could not take having so many people screaming at him for it and carry it out .. i guess he just felt too guilty. maybe if he had'nt gone alone he would have had the strength to continue which is why i see people operate in groups.

Wouldn't believe it could happen before i saw it. "criminals are so desperate these no point" is not something i buy anymore, they clearly aren't always fully sold on what their doing, especially if young and any little thing could be enough for them to turn back.
