But you understand that everything you linked are examples of why a govt can’t actually print infinitely

We already agreed on why governments don’t print infinite money.

and can’t just pay interest to rich people

We know it can because we know it does. The wealthy buy US Treasuries for risk-free returns on investment.

Also it’s a red flag to me that all of your sources are youtube videos.

The reason I link to YouTube videos is because most people don’t read. They’re not going to read Karl Marx or Michael Hudson.
