The tax-cut and unemployment-payment compromise will add to the already monstrous federal debt. But no problem, the government can just print more money. Well, maybe it can:
A printing problem with the new high-tech $100 bills has forced government printers to shut down production - and to quarantine more than one billion of the notes.
The flawed notes represent more than ten per cent of the U.S. currently on the entire planet.
[. . .]
The defective bills - which are the most costly ever produced - will simply have to be burned.
Billions burned by the federal government with no benefit to the people. Boy, there's a shock.
