fafura asked:

Issuing bonds gets country deeper into debt. Same amount of money gets into system, given the Fed buys all the bonds. Why doesn’t government just issue money?
If Fed buys those bonds, they input $1 billion new money into economy, same as printing isn’t it?

Could those bonds have been used for debt financing of schools or public safety? Or will the city recoup the opportunity cost through taxes, fees, and parking revenues? How are bonds issued?
