Now you can join us in the hell that is cardboard cutlery.

a trillion dollars is 1/25th of last year’s american gdp.

people fail to realize that the main drivers of inflation aren’t people — they’re corporations

related example: while inflation and interest rates are both high, reserve requirement ratios for banks are still zero. theoretically, this gives big enough banks carte blanche to print as much money as they want, driving inflation.

It doesn't appear anyone even attempted to quantify the damage they're claiming these things do. Lots of people will now be inconvenienced, and we don't even know if it's a good idea or not.

This dude's post history is Extra Fucking Yikes. Full-on Q-Anon crazy-hole bullshit. Believes the bullshit about soy, which then goes hand-in-hand with screeching about trans people, and then all the "I'm not, you are" lies about Biden to try and deflect from what an utter looney their chosen fascist saviour is.
