Back when I was on welfare during the Clinton Administration, I went to night school at Bryant. I can remember the professors saying that government should increase spending to stimulate an economy in recession. They had a bunch of small letters after their names and they wore tweed and were very convincing.

Yup, thats the way to do it.
But, we are just printing money.
we don't have any value behind it.

Since when does value behind money matter when it comes to any government?All they do is just print more or more zeros on it and if that fails they issue new currency.

We're experiencing deflation right now. Inflation favors debtors and punishes savers. Since we're a nation of debtors, its not as bad as it used to be.
