Let’s just pass a bill with a quadrillion dollar stimulus and go for broke.

The method and speed at which Congress is just pushing out 1/2 trillion and multi-trillion dollar spending bills at nearly the flip of a switch is not only irresponsible, it is insanity.

These people have devalued not only our currency, they have devalued our great institutions that were set up to secure our freedoms and liberty. Pray for our country.

The idea is to destroy the free enterprise system of business, than the green new deal can replace it.

The billions upon billions we waste, given away to foreign aid and other garbage that does not benefit the American people is staggering. Pull that money back and use it to lower the bills passed.

So where is Tea Party 2.0. It only took $800 billion to bring them out last time. It sems like $6 trillion would stir them a little.

It’s a big farce. The government does not have the money. It issues money based on nothing, thus diluting the value of each and every dollar bill in circulation.

It just cut the value of your savings, retirement funds, and investments.

Plus, who do you think is going to buy the government obligations? Probably the very same country that gave us CV19.

If we extend this logic about modern monetary theory, why even pay and collect taxes anymore? Can’t the government just print more money as “revenue?”

“The biggest threat to our nation is if government grows accustomed to throwing trillions of dollars at our problems and Americans remain too complacent to stop it.”

Yep. The “moral hazards” (rewarding and encouraging irresponsible behavior) inherent in these bills are huge. Unfortunately Trump is not what one would call a fiscal conservative. I hope it doesn’t make it through the senate and if it does I hope he vetoes this latest porkulous.
