Yeah! Just print money!! 10, maybe 20 trillion? Ooo...we could plant orchards that bloom $100 bills. Yay! Problem solved.
@BizSuitStacy the money is created in much larger amounts for other things. Eisenhower printed the money for the US hiways. Now it's conservative to have nothing useful, just a giant rust belt.
@Roundandroundwego Econ 101. Control the f**king money supply. Why the hell do you think there is double digit inflation?
