House majority leader Nancy Pelosi expressed her support for the stimulus plan in a Jan. 14 announcement, while senate majority leader Mitch McConnell and several other Republican congressional members had expressed their disapproval for further funding to the state and local governments, especially after the $900 billion bill had just been passed last year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Federal Reserve\u2019s resorting to money printing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Soaring national deficit devaluing the dollar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since March 2020, the Federal Reserve introduced a series of propositions to save the economy, which would include increasing money supply. However, with the national debt soaring over $28 trillion, it has now surpassed the country\u2019s GDP. The Federal Reserve\u2019s debt, which tops at around $7 trillion, is an ongoing strategy which, in the long-term, rations its economic burdens to the rest of the world through the monetization of the deficit. A continual devaluation of the dollar is expected with the government\u2019s excessive spending.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inflated balance sheet will lead to liquidity in financial markets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An enormous and growing deficit would eventually lead to the devaluation of the dollar, which also devalues assets of its holder and harms the overall confidence of continuing to hold said assets. This would, in the long run, damage the reputation of the dollar and the dominance of the American economy.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American President Joe Biden proposed a $1.9 trillion s [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,7,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-199","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-opinion","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=199"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":201,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199\/revisions\/201"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=199"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=199"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.viewworld.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=199"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
