1/y I don't know whom you were talking to but "giving" is not a solution. You should know that. Iniquity is built into the monetary system. A system that distributes debt whilst centralising profit.

2/y "Giving" merely distributes more debt thereby making the lot of the poor even worse.

3/y There are very well defined arithmetical limits to this monetary system. As the sponsors of the system attempt to short circuit the final denouement, you have gobs of money being thrown at entities that rightly should not receive.

7/y So, "giving" more today merely serves to exacerbate an already acute situation of wealth disparity. We need an overhaul of the monetary system. And this ham fisted pandemic "response", is part and parcel of the underlying problem.

Then let's use another mechanism, like wealth redistribution, debt neutral. And, keep in mind that there are many economic theories, most which contain a kennel of truth, but all fail to explain all situations all the time.
