Okay. I’m trying to follow along, but I’m still grappling w/understanding this. The only thing I keep coming back to is the houses, “asset” has gone down in value. That is fine if you just hold, don’t sell, etc. The money isn’t *destroyed*.
The reality is that people extracted money/equity and went on spending binges. They are not doing that now. Okay. To a lesser degree, people are living for free for up to 2 years, so they still are able to spend somewhat. Things didn’t come to a crashing, grinding halt. Nevertheless, the money being spent and circulated is considerably less.
Yes, the government is printing money. Indirectly this has also allowed people to live for free for 2 years, IMO, and hence money continues to be spent.
