Money is created out of thin air, they literally do type a number into a computer and voila, new money. And money is just numbers, and numbers go on forever. Saying there isn't enough money is just code for "I want to keep the status quo."

I sadly think things are only going to get worse. With SCOTUS now doing as planned, the Conservatives & their allies (ref. Manchin) will only feel more emboldened in their actions.
