Letter to the editor: Throwing money at the Russia problem

Oh dear, Russia invaded Ukraine. How horrible! What can we do to fix this? I know the answer. Let’s print billions of dollars and throw it at the problem. That’s sure to fix it. Never mind that this will fuel inflation. Never mind about any type of military or diplomatic strategy. Never mind what to do if it doesn’t succeed. Never mind who will replace Putin should he be deposed. Never mind that much of this money will end up in the hands of the Ukrainian leadership (one of the most corrupt on the planet). Never mind that Russia’s 30,000 missiles are at Defcon 5.

Thank God we have political leaders who know how to solve these types of problems. Simply print money and throw it at the problem. That will teach those nasty Russians a lesson.
