We’re not living in a dictatorship (yet). Funny how people here assume we all live in the same country. There are lots of people on HN who live in dictatorships. If you’re interested in how money works you should read a book or two about it. It’s pretty interesting. Thanks for the condescension. Money printing is a colloquial term used to describe various ways in which the money supply is manipulated by Central Banks, they like to use terms such as Quantitative Easing (creation of new bank reserves that didn't before exist) and open market operations (buying assets with money that didn't before exist).
