A $5,000 payment would not cause inflation

For the record I am against this payment.
But it would not cause iNfLaTiOn
Taking money that would’ve gone to tranny promotions, queer plays, opium irrigation and global fig studies….then giving it to the American people would not cause iNfLaTiOn.
IF this payment does happen, which as I’ve said I am against, only Trump voters should get it.
iNfLaTiOn is the go to response by every TDS infected lunatic on this site. Similar to 2016-2020 RuSsIaNs (also bullshite)

That's not the proper comparison. This is improper framing.
The point of this $5k being available is that it's not supposed to go to any of those things you just listed. It's supposed to not be spent/go to the debt.
Compared to that scenario, it will cause inflation.

It’s basically a looooong over due tax return that should actually be about 30x that amount over the decades.
It won’t harm anything as long as it goes back tk the actual tax payers.

Exactly what it is, and the OP is wrong as usual, a trillion dollars plopped on consumers lap at once will bump inflation.
Pay it over time and it most likely will not.

Nope you’re 100% wrong.

You don't think paying people $150,000 each will cause inflation?

I am not.
This money is supposed to be removed from circulation and either not spent (help with the deficit) or, if already allocated, pay down debt. In effect it's removing this money from the money supply, which is deflationary.
Changing the plan to remove the money and then add it back into the money supply is inflationary.
Posted on 2/24/25 at 7:55 am to texag7
Yeah I don’t understand that talking point. The money is already in circulation. How would it cause inflation?
Posted on 2/24/25 at 7:56 am to texag7
It also wouldn’t decrease the debt

Was removing the money from circulation part of the original plan?

I think if the plan is to take back whatever is still left that was allocated for these programs and give it back to the taxpayers and then quit funding them altogether moving forward, that's probably fine.
I think also moving forward there needs to be a system where government spending is more transparent and taxpayers have more say. I don't know if it's something like we get to vote on certain expenditures over a certain dollar amount but this can't keep being done in secrecy.
If an organization wants to spend taxpayer dollars on putting together a transgender karaoke party in zimbabwe, they should have to run it by the taxpayers first and get approval.

In this scenario...how?
If it's already in circulation, then it's already been spent by the agency and we can't get any savings from it. We're not going to claw back this money.

The money is released to agencies and NGOs (Some not in this country) who release it over time.
Dumping a trillion in the hands of consumers is a totally different ballgame. To prevent an inflation bum, give monthly payments.

If you took the wealth of the 5 wealthiest people in the the US and distrbuted that to tax payers, it would put roughly $8K in everyone's pocket.
You don't think putting $8K in the average tax payer's pocket to do as he/she pleased would tick up inflation?

You were the one banging your pot a month ago saying they wouldn’t make enough cuts to amount to anything.
Looks like you were wrong again idiot.

The covid stimulus checks were $600-$1400/person; far cry from $5k.
Most people either put it to savings or pay down debt back then because $600-$1400 wasnt much to do much else with.
