Instead of the story about spending the paycheck at lunch time before the prices go up tomorrow. We have a situation where the Gov’t simply gives people and businesses lots of free money, to meet the higher prices. To keep businesses going and help people pay the higher bills so the system doesn’t crash tomorrow. LOL. Eh?
I predicted long ago, “Eventually the gov’t will just have to give people money”. I heard they are doing that in some countries.
Also re mass shootings? They need to do studies re these gangs, and start some stereo typing. What kind of people are doing this? Were they born here? If not where from? Norway Sweeden, or Japan? What kind of parents did they have? Did they graduate high school? Do they have, and can they get a viable job? If not why not? Did they grow up in poverty?
The gov’t should secretly give them each $30,000 to $40,000 a year of paper money, for nothing, (instead of jail) would they be able to get married and behave better? Then GIVE it to them. Its a cheap price to pay. You get what you pay for. Kind of like a Good Fellas witness protection thing. Money well spent.
Also Ukraine. If the Russians are not happy about the European colonization and annexation of Ukraine, how much money would make the Russians happy? Hell we paid them for Alaska!! The Europeans should just BUY Ukraine. Start making offers. I’m certain there is a price that would satisfy them. Especially with all the destroyed buildings, its worth less.
Who cares how much? GIVE it to them. It won’t raise taxes. Its free counterfeit money, and or just digits on a computer. Cheaper than war destruction and losing lives. A bargain. A value? A lousy few trillion dollars? And if $5,000 dollars buys a house in Russia, Its like maybe a $100 trillion to them.
I was talking to a lady in the Philippines re an Oster toaster oven repair. They use pesos instead Dollar she said. So a 2 bedroom rental is about $300/month in Manilla. New house she said would cost $20,000.
