Roland Martin, BlackPack Polls and the Three Trillion Dollar Stimulus

Roland Martin discusses a BlackPack poll suggesting a black female VP would increase enthusiasm among black voters. The conversation shifts to the Democrats' proposed three-trillion-dollar stimulus package, which the hosts claim includes provisions for undocumented workers using Taxpayer Information Numbers (TINs). They contrast the lack of specific reparations funding with the massive scale of the stimulus spending.

The Ease of Funding Trillion-Dollar Initiatives

The hosts argue that the rapid passage of the $2.2 trillion coronavirus stimulus package proves that the government can "create money out of thin air" when it has the political will. They dismiss the excuse that reparations are too expensive, noting that the mechanism for trillion-dollar payouts has now been clearly demonstrated. They refer to this as "immunized money" that bankers have figured out how to issue without immediate hyperinflation.
