Since the money will prop up business profits you have to see it as a business incentive.

@whowasthatmaskedman Yeah, but the economy is doing great! And consumers have pocketful of money... thanks to Baby-trump.

@MarkPaul No. The economy is not doing great at all. Its like having a hole in your tyre, and sitting in the service station pumping air is just as fast as it comes out. The tire looks fine to you. But you cant disconnect that pump for a moment, because it will go flat. No chance of any real progress.

@whowasthatmaskedman It doesn't sound like you are being loyal to Baby-trump.

@MarkPaul No. I am actual neither left , nor right. I just speak economic truth. A buck is a buck is a buck. In the pirate days they used to clip coins to give up part of their value. But that was Okay, because everyone knew the coin was clipped and weighed it to see what was left. Trump speak is to clip the coin, then try to tell you it is worth more.
