I'm not sure the bailout money is as costly as people think.
After all, according to AARP, money disbursed by the govt comes back to the govt in taxes at a rate of almost 98% of the amount disbursed or thereabouts. That includes all kinds of taxes including state income taxes.
Since the economy is shut down, value is not being created. I think that means that even though the bailout gets disbursed, the amount of money in the economy is similar to the case where it didn't get disbursed. It's just that useful product isn't created. Less co2 is created however. Inflation may result but that is a big if. Economists are uncertain why there hasn't been more inflation during the time of increasing national debt.

Someday you'll learn something about economics and the role of the Fed. You might also finally learn the laws of thermodynamics that says CO2 cannot increase the temperature of Earth.


........Nah.

Most people realize that the bailout will be exactly as costly as the total bailout package.

We the People aren't elated by the government having more money. We the People want *us* to have more wealth. I would rather be rich and have the government tighten its belt than for the government to be swimming in cash while I tighten my belt.

I recommend you politely ask Into the Night to explain to you how EVERYBODY becomes instantly poorer whenever the value of currency drops ... and how the value of the dollar drops every time more dollars are printed. The bailout package will make everyone poorer so as to make the government wealthier.

This is very bad.

There is an easy fix. Would you care to guess what that is?

The dollar index is meaningless. It's only value is to relate the dollar to other paper currencies, equally controlled by other various governments, and equally not tied to any commodity.

Still battin' 0.00, keepit.

It's going down.

23 March 2020: 103.51
24 March 2020: 102.07
25 March 2020: 100.92

The bailout will not help the value of the dollar.

Financial damage increases price gauging and fuels inflation.

I read one story where a Texas billionaire (Tillman Ferrita) was worth $5 billion and now is worth only $3.3 billion. They didn't say what his monthly income was or what his personal monthly budget is.
It's possible that he's so rich that his income is still much more than what it costs him to live on. And this goes back to Reagonomics and his Trickle Down economics If the rich people aren't spending the money they make, then it's not going back into the economy.
This in turn can cause an economy to contract if the government doesn't increase its spending.

Financial damage does not retard inflation.

I don't think there's going to be enough money in the economic system in the next several months to fuel inflation. It depends on how much money the fed and the treasury is willing to cut loose.
True, later there may be inflation but there needs to be a solution for the immediate future. Inflation is complicated. It hasn't been happenng and it's not clear why. It may not happen in the future and it might not be clear why.
During the great depression there wasn't inflation to my knowledge but of course, the fed and the treasury weren't producing money.
Bottom line --- who knows?

I think they went about the bailout wrong. They should've identified which businesses are hurting because of this. And this would exclude businesses like casinos. The billionaire said that is good to go for several moths.
And as for people, maybe increase unemployment benefits for laid off workers.
Then when it's safe for life to get back to normal, businesses could recall laid off workers.
It's like with airlines, payments on their planes to finance companies could be placed at the end of their leases and this could be done for everyone else affected by that.
For home owners, their mortgage payments likewise could be moved to the end of their mortgage. This would have minimized the amount of the bailout.
And in the future, the country might need to be ready for a 3 week shut down and that would be possible if our country is prepared for it. This response could take a year or more as they expect successive waves of the corona virus.
And in the future, people could should stockpile N95 masks and nitrile gloves. That could negate the need for businesses to close for 2 to 3 weeks to give the medical people time to identify the infected.

There's going to be less money circulating in the next few months. The other side of the coin is ... how much goods and services are going to be produced. Those are the main drivers of inflation i think.
As far as i know, financial damage does retard inflation. The other side of that is ... how much money is coming from the fed and treasury?

A suspension of all interest accrual might be helpful but then some people live on interest accrual.

The same money that is in thye system is still in the system. Raising M1 puts more money in the system. Inflation is not fueled by money. It is fueled by more dollars chasing the same wealth.

Nope. it depends on how fast wealth is being created vs how much money is put into the system.
keepit wrote:

There WILL be inflation from this. Wealth is not being created fast enough to accept this kind of printing of money.

It WILL happen in the future. The government is out of options. They are broke.
keepit wrote:

YES THEY WERE. Worse, the constantly changing whims of people like President Hoover and FDR made the great depression great. FDR also eventually just stole the gold from the people.

ITN says, "the same money that is in the system is still in the system".
I see your point but there are two things here.
1 - why are people going broke if the money is still there?
2 - money in the system goes back to the fed when debts are paid to banks, who then pays the fed.
The fed has to redistribute the money to some degree or the money supply will shrink.

ITN, 0.00 isn't a batting average. .000 is. Slugging % which is total bases divided by at bats can be above 1.000. Then a digit is placed in front of the decimal point.
