If poor people need money, why cant just print off more and give it to them?

Just too easy to suggest this, the money has to come from somewhere, Without the money being resourced you will get rampant inflation, this is what happened in Germany in the 1920's where the money was devalued every day, with cost of buying goods increasing much faster than wages. Everything has to be in balance, just printing more money will destroy that balance.

Yeah good idea :D . Just print them and give to them and then they go to jail and haves sothing like a home . Because they were couth with fack money :D .

if this is what the government will just do, print out more money to give to the poor, money will be meaningless already. we don't need anymore to go to school and get a job later since it's useless. afterall, we can just get money for free. so, it's better if we work hard for our money.

it is agood idea but the effect economy of world is not good it willbe make evry thing are expesiv and the poorpeapol willbe more poor

we can not print more money to give to the poor because it will affect the balance budget of the economy, because the more money we make the lesser the value of the money. ive already asked that to my professor in high school.

As much of a good idea this sounds, it really is a bad idea. It will hurt the economy a lot. Inflation will drive the value of money down, which will then increase the price of an item. Not a good idea.

it will reduce our money value my friend.

Money is a Legal tender for all debts public or private, answerable by the treasury with its reserves.

Giving away free money? Yes it would affect the economy, ALOT.
