The Reserve is printing NEW money, which devalues the 75% you have left! THEN, the government gives you $1200 which may or may not even get you back up to the 75% mark, depending on how much you actually make! permalink save report block reply ▲ 5 ▼ – FuzzyPickle 5 points 1 year ago +5 / -0 This really pisses me off.

It’s not your same dollar coming back. It’s the future dollar that belongs to your children that they are stealing from to fill your pocket today. permalink parent save report block reply
