This is one of my pet peeves..."no problem" ...in my experience, chic-fil-a employees use "my pleasure" or something similar, but never "no problem"...employees in my own company learned on day one, NEVER say "no problem" as a reply to a customer thanking them...
It's not that we are "giving the Saudi's dollars", the agreement was for Saudi to trade oil in dollars only regardless of the buyer. All countries trading with them would need dollars. This creates a demand for dollars and has for a short time kept some value in the dollar. Less demand is not good for any one holding dollars as it will soon be worthless. Your purchasing power will be greatly reduce. So your statement is true "be more for everyday Americans" you will need it!
Imagine all that "money" comes back to America. Your house is stacked up in every room with paper money higher than your head. And because there's way too much of it, they've devalued $100 bills to buy less than a hundredth of a penny worth of stuff. Happy now?
Can I sell you a wheelbarrow to take enough to the bakery for a loaf?
There are several reasons why more money won't devalue the currency. First is that if everyone had more money, they would probably save more of it as well. More money also means more technology, which makes people more efficient. Things like Roombas, washing machines, and iPhones mean that people can do more and create more value. Higher efficiency will drive down the cost of producing goods. Not to mention, if someone was selling a loaf of bread for a $100, no one would buy it, so the free market is self-correcting.
That's the beauty of it. The government doesn't have to print more money. This is basic supply and demand. If there is less demand, then there will be more money without having to print another dollar, it's fantastic. With this extra money, we'll be able to drill more oil domestically.
Not a problem. If they don't want to use dollars, that's fine, more money for us.
Really? That’s your take away from this?
"Not a problem" is the new "thank you", cashiers say to "guests"...aka customers...
Dang, that's really true. Good observation!
Hey - not a problem 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, if we're not giving the Saudi's dollars, then there should be more for everyday Americans.

Because the federal reserve isn’t printing enough for everyone to have? Really, that’s your answer?

But not Zimbabwean too much.
Interesting take.
