We did actually do it though, COVID payments. Remember how corporations immediately went on a money grab and inflation immediately kicked in and now we have permanently higher prices? The fed stated 1/3 of the inflation was directly from the universal stimulus money. Printing money for everyone has good and bad factors.

They also double dip on the other side, the amount they charge is not always the amount you click on. Several times they add a few bucks and you have to go thru hoops to get it back, most wouldn’t bother. But it would add up over a lot of accounts. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a class action spring up, no way it was just happening to me.
