You seem to be confusing terms and facts. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act was back in 2009 and got us out of the subprime economic collapse. Spending was less than 1 trillion and it did not cause 9% inflation and had significant return on investment.
The American
Rescue Plan under Biden saw inflation briefly spike at 9% but then it dropped back down to 3% in 2024. It pulled the US out of the post-COVID crisis economy that Trump left us in, and generated the strongest economic growth and employment of any advanced economy around the globe.
