2. It's only money. Let me repeat that: it's only money.

The Feds can print as much $ as they want. They can mint three coins with a face value of $1-trillion each and, viola! no debt incurred for the $3-trillion D plan.

We’re not on a gold standard. Money is worth what they say it’s worth. There should be no concern about the “deficit” because we can use acceptable monetary tricks to avoid adding to the deficit.

Works for me.
