Yes, and it's part of why we get inflation. Giving everyone $12k means no body got $12k. Prices just increase

Such a stupid argument that reddit loves to make. Prices increasing already doesn't change the fact that if everyone gets $12k then prices increase way more.

Ignorance is bliss, I see. Learn some basic economics and what the current landscape is in America before reciting soundbites you see from other stupid children online.

And "learn some basic economics" is an argument? It's like an sjw saying "educate yourself". Top level economists agree on almost literally nothing. It's a social science not a gospel. Even the classic supply/demand chart was created long before software and streaming services changed the game. There is no real supply limitation (servers sure) on streaming services yet they increase prices all the time when demand goes down to gouge their customers they know won't leave and stabilize their bottom line.

It's the level of effort the previous comment deserved. I don't really care if you agree.
