The Biggest Heist In Human History

Here’s your economics quiz for the day:
Question 1 – What do you think would happen if you put $3 trillion into the financial system?
a – Stock prices would rise
b – Stock prices would fall
c – Stock prices would stay the same
Question 2 – What do you think would happen if you put $3 trillion into the economy? (Via fiscal stimulus for infrastructure projects, extended unemployment benefits, food stamps, etc)
a – Activity would increase and the economy would grow
b – Activity would slow and the economy would shrink
c – Activity would stay the same, so growth would remain unchanged
If you picked ‘a’ for both questions, then pat yourself on the back because you got the right answers.
