>I like how in this worldview giving money to the capital class of society is fine and dandy, but giving money to labour class is disasterous. Seems suspiciously convenient.

Pretty bold of you to derive his world view from such a short statement of opinion. Just because he didn't like the 'rona stimmy payments doesn't mean he's fine with with pumping asset prices by buying assets.

I and many other people dislike both those things but for me personally they're a drop in the bucket compared to my hatred for the kind of unsound logic that underpins the strawman you built.

People talk about handouts as if most of them went to families and individuals.

They didn't. The inflation we see is from money printed and given mostly to corporations.

I’d wholeheartedly disagree, some citizens were receiving $2-3k a month from having dependents in areas where that would cover 2 entire families bills. This in turn created massive free cash flow, which was then mostly spent.
