It was a way to increase spending base for congress.
Instead of $4 trillion it starts at $6 trillion and will go up from there. Lots of graft to be had.
I read articles where the FED says WE the people are spending too much so interest rates have to go up when the solution is to cut the $2 trillion as starters to get rid of the high prices.
The trillion went to his politically connected friends. Lots of it gets kicked back to the Democratic Party and specific politicians to keep control of the government.
