Its pretty easy to see who the first to get the money are, but who are the "last ones" to receive the money? My guess is that these people aren't Americans.

Non-Americans typically have their own currencies with their own Cantillon effects (which are in some cases far worse than the Federal Reserve's).

Yeah but for many of them, the USD is the reserve for their currency, so their currency and the reserve currency would experience the effects. Would that be a double whammy?

Yes they get a double whammy Cantillion effect.
