I saw this on twitter... pretty cool and terrifying when the Dem's are talking $5 trillion
Build Back Better bullshit

The magnitude of difference between 1 million and 1 billion is not that intuitive and can be illustrated with this example of the time scale:
- A million seconds is 12 days.
- A billion seconds is 31 years.
- A trillion seconds is 31,688 years

Yeah the "build back better" slogan really fell flat. It should be called "repay everyone who donated to my campaign regardless of whether or not it fucks every U.S. citizen in the ass with no lube".

or

"Repay everyone who helped fix the election"

That was the same with Obama's "shovel ready" jobs. Voters are so stupid that they believe their party actually cares about them and is going to do anything other than funnel tax payer money to their inner circle, even foreign entities.

Each $100 bill weighs 1 gram. To rob a bank/etc of $100M is one million bills to carry. Roughly 2200lbs. If you split them into 50lb bags it would take you 44 trips to load them. Yet the gov can just make up money at just about any rate they want by borrowing money that isn't there.

Another interesting fact. The current printing process for $100 dollar bills can produce $20M of 100's per hour. A single machine would take 28 years to print the $5T  in 100's that Dems want to spend.

Bank reserves are not the same thing as fiat currency printing.
The FED entering decimal places in a given bank's reserve is not directly inflationary.
Money is lent into existence.

I signed up to follow the was in Ukraine.
If you follow the "Trending" suggestions, it's garbage
but I made a list of people/companies/organizations to follow and it's pretty interesting

I was hopeful that Musk would buy it and turn it into something that at least tried
to be impartial... That seems less likely now.
I will probably close my account eventually if Musk doesn't buy it
The stench of liberal censorship is strong.

twitter/FB/reddit/etc are all psy-ops sponsored by the alphabet agencies.
4chan really pisses them off, which is why they are paying MSM to paint the website as the boogeyman.

 Do you really think Zukerturd funded the 2020 election theft and the mechanisms behind the operation and the legal cover all by himself?????????

Speaking of Richard Fernandez

It's hard to believe it's been almost 20 years
PJ Media was founded following the Mike Wallace/National Guard fraud during the 2004 election
It got it's name from a crack someone made about guys sitting around in their pajamas fact checking
a media icon like Mike Wallace.
They did fact check him, and destroyed him and his career because they exposed him as a lying partisan hack

You deposit $10 the bank creates new money by loaning out $8....very simplified version
