Original Note:
Stimulus checks funded by increasing the money supply (printing money) directly expand circulation, often raising inflation by boosting demand beyond supply. Reallocating federal budgets uses existing funds, avoiding new money creation, so it doesn’t directly cause inflation. https://www.economicshelp.org/blog/1377/economics/effect-of-printing-money-on-economy/
