    “In this case, checks from the government fueled more inflation than they did wealth building,” he said.

    Fuck off. I hate these people, all of them should be thrown into a woodchipper. Monetarist nonsense.

    What an annoying fucking article. Really shows the bourgeois disdain for the poor, that even the thought of a tiny crumb of basic income is shut down with the excuse of “inflation”.
