Free money from the government is the best form that free money can take.
If the free stuff isn't given out by government, it will be captured by plutocrats with no democratic accountability.
- josephcsible 5y agoThe problem is that the government can't run out of money, so when free stuff from the government goes runaway, the whole economy gets wrecked. If free stuff from private companies goes runaway, then the private companies will run out of money and go out of business.
- DarylZero 5y agoI didn't say free stuff FROM private companies. There's a lot of free stuff in the world, and if governments don't distribute it, then it will be captured (not distributed!) by a plutocratic elite.
