All Good points, but getting back to the origin of the thread.
Some believe that printing money, Stimulus,is the answer. That for certain devalues the dollar, and you will need more dollars to buy products. The more units that you print, the less it is worth. And the paying back the debt will go on forever, and God forbid when rates rise.then you have real trouble trying to pay just the Interest, let alone the principal.
Some believe that the government is the most wasteful entity on earth. Why are they wasteful ? Because it is not their money. They don't care. GSA, ect.. just waste millions , and multiply that by the thousands of programs that the government has, and you have massive wasteful spending. Billions turn into trillions
Is the answer to print more money ? Is the answer to streamline Government and cut the fat ? The fat has been going on since I was born, so it isn't something new.
I believe it is to cut the wasteful spending, and not print more money.. Will that happen ? I doubt it, so I set my Investments on the case that they will print and spend, and never cut the waste...The waste is the grease for the 537 Politicians.
So, none of us are unreasonable, we just have different views on what should be done..Nothing wrong with that..I mean personally, that is.
Again, I appreciate both sides so that the thread gives people choices..Let the readers decide..Individually, we have decided, and nothing someone posts will change our minds, but it would be boring if we all just agreed
