If the U.S. government gave every single person on earth 1 million U.S. dollars would the world be a better place?
Quote from jonbig04:
lol what does that have to do with anything. and 'better' is subjective. I could reply yes or no and argue either point. Dumb question.

Quote from Barth Vader:
It would depend on what your definition of the word "is" is.......
Seriously, your question very simply frames our current fiscal policies.
Yes, every single person would be a millionaire [those who were not previously millionaires], but a bucket of Popeye's fried chicken would cost $ 2160.00...and the folks who work at Popeye's would be earning $400 per hour.
Quote from Obama=communism:
You and nutmeg are stating what i already know. I want to see if there is even one single hopeless lefty who is willing to go along with Obama's print money ideology. The other day some stupid fuck on CNBC tried to say that the credit crisis would not have happened if there was MORE UNIONS in the U.S.A. because everyone would have more CASH money as opposed to resorting to credit. I want to see if lefties even have a grasp on simple economic reality which states that "there is a limited amount of resources for an unlimited amount of people," Or if they actually believe printing money makes people richer.
Quote from maxpi:
Actually, the "more Unions argument" is not without merit. Historically, when the business sector has underutilized capacity they offer credit to consumers to kick up the spending rate. They have to do that because they are holding wages down too efficiently.
That is leading to ever bigger bubbles btw.
