- PuppyTailWags 4y agoIt really isn't. My understanding is spending a dollar on certain things actually increases the total amount of money available to society later on, which is how investment works. Giving poor people 1$ is equivalent to giving society 1.7$ because poor people have immediate expenses to spend that money on, like debt.
