    There’s also a lack of other factors because the population receiving the supplemental income is small relative to the “market.”

    You give a thousand people extra money, you bump up their income from subsistence to usable.

    You give everyone supplemental income without price controls on goods and housing, then rent or other costs just skyrocket to eat up the extra.
