Printing more money is a bad idea. That’s inflation.

Money, like everything else, is a commodity. Whenever you increase the supply of any commodity, the value of each unit of that commodity goes down. Thus, it takes more of them to get to the same value.

I wouldn’t assume that many in government think inflation is a bad thing.

If you were $17 trillion in debt, wouldn’t you want the value of money to go down?

Same cynical shell game we’ve been playing for 80 years.
