Look, you have to crush three generations beneath debt they’ll never escape, that’s just economics 101; nothing but nothing is better for an economy than 150 million people with no spending power.
Sure you could put $1.57 trillion back in the hands of working Americans but they’ll just squander it on goods and services, which is the worst possible thing for any economy. Meanwhile billionaires will either put it in the Grand Caymans or buy a 19th yacht.
"Sure you could remove people from crushing student debt, but they'd be no better off afterward, and would only lead to the expectation that the government would solve other systemic problems. Also 200,000 Americans with $8k wouldn't stimulate the economy."
