And these people keep saying they’re so much smarter than us.

Malevolent fricking idiots is what they really are.

Maybe We Printed Too Much Money Without Thinking Of The Unintended Consequences

Unintended? Inflation is always the consequence of putting too much money into circulation. When the Spanish brought back gold from the New World and put it into circulation guess what happened. Whopping huge inflation. You don't make an economy rich by printing money - only a few people who are in line to get the stuff first fresh off the printing presses.

Course you could always invoke the Roberts rule - it's a tax, which it is.

"We printed too much money and didn't think of unintended consequences"

Statements like this require an old fashioned tar and feathering. Not even joking.

Nice try. We know you are not that stupid. Your motivation was something else.

Well, you can’t really expect the International Monetary Fund to understand stuff like money supply. C’mon! You’d need to find some kind of expert for that if you want to understand the consequences of the policies.

Even college students are taught to look at the consequences. There are no “unintended” consequences at this level.

Exactly.

All part of The Plan™

What’s next? CDC/FRAUDci saying Maybe We Pushed Too Many Dangerous $hots ??

Creepy Joe claiming Maybe There Were Too Many Nefarious Happenings on Hunter’s Laptop ???

Geez. They honestly think they can get off, from their corruption, so easily??

But don’t worry - our apparatchiks and PhDs have plenty of interventions and schemes to fix the problems we created!

It was in the 1st or 2nd grade (as I recall) that I learned that printing money with nothing behind it makes the price you pay for candy bars go up.

Unintended consequences?
Give me a break.

Given the lame attempts to stop them, I’d say yes, they can get away with it, easily..
