The US Treasury is not empty. Money is still in there, including my money, and they're going to be taking more of my money later.

If you think they're just "printing" money, you're naive about economics.

The Treasury doesn't hold your money, the Federal Reserve does.

And, yes, they do "print" money. The Federal Reserve literally creates money as credits in the central banks. This is a well known, openly discussed and documented process. I won't go further, because I don't want to write a book in this dialog box, but feel free to look it up yourself.

You calling someone naive about economics and thinking the Treasury is the bank account for the country is ironic.

You're naive about economics because a large portion of what you've been taught about how our government works is a lie. The fed is a fucking leech meant to suck the wealth out of our nation and feed the elites. The wool has been pulled over your eyes. Your taxes are used to line their pockets, nothing more.
