prices go up?

Why.

Help.

Why is government printing more money and giving it to me a bad thing. I need it to live.

I’d like both the econ101 (fake, lib, propaganda) and the marxist (real, truth, based) answer pls.

    When the govt bails out the banks (by paying them what is owed by the people), that also causes inflation then right?

    Do the govt can just “bail out” the people instead.

      Why would they do that? People do not fund political donations, banks do. Also, all of these people and their kids have gone to the same schools, same circuits, same parties, sometimes for generations. It's real cool club, and you're not a part of it.

        No no I know, I’m saying a good govt can bail out the people and tell companies to not increase costs and thus not have an inflation.

          Maybe, but then investors won't invest into the country, capital flight and all of that. That being said, no.one knows what would happen if all the countries decided to do that.
