8. Maybe...

Considering that I, and many others are in the economy where we don't really see much of booty from the stash, I give it little attention and lose no sleep over it.

It is more about who gets the money and how it is used. It is almost like a closed system, as in we walk up and the sign is changed to, "CLOSED!"

Look at the little green nod we received with the last stimulus in comparison to the giant corporate feast of great bounty from a horn of plenty of socialism for you guys.

Maybe we just might get another pittance so we can get all haughty and carefree enough to pay a few bills or...gulp...the RENT! Wow.

Now, what it does to "fiscal conservatives", (where did they go, Libertarian Island?) is another matter.

I know it is devil may care, but money is an abstraction and if it is misused and used as a barrier in a democracy, then let it go up to a trillion trillion. We already are up to our ears for generations servicing our debt. There is no forecast of solvency this century, if ever. The economy and banks are all about debt, anyway.
