I don't disagree. Some get upset about governments and banks "printing money." My point was they are not upset/concerned to do so as it benefits them.

if printing money without earning it and collecting on those debts were a good thing for the economy then it wouldn't be a problem if everyone did it.

it'll help stimulate the economy if i print up some 100 dollar bills. yeah! why are people getting bent out of shape because of my contribution to productivity?
