When you put money into the market, but take bonds (which are a guaranteed future cash flow) out you are injecting liquidity temporarily, effectively trading current cash for more future cash.

It's not the same thing as printing money and spending it and suggesting otherwise is either disingenuous or ignorant.

Think of this business opportunity.

Start a company where you imagine wealth into existence then loan it to others. Then you setup partner systems where you charge folks who use that wealth. A charge for each transaction.

Zero overhead with a profit layer...
