I thought as much. I recommend you learn what is "MMT." You can begin with this: MMT is a description of how currency works, inception to destruction, in a monetary system. It describes what is already in use. In the US, it describes federal finance in operation since August 1971. https://cdn.underground.net/wp-content/uploads/7DIF-of-Money-Short.pdf

All Federal spending is self-financed. All Federal programs are paid by dollar creation. The process begins in Congress with votes on a bill to purchase goods and services to provision the Federal Government from the domestic & foreign private (non-government) sector. When the bill and its appropriations attachment pass, the bill goes to POTUS to be signed into law. When the POTUS signs the bill, that law orders Treasury to complete the transaction. Treasury instructs the recipient's bank to increase the account balance with the number of dollars appropriated and the Federal Reserve Bank clears the payment. When the recipient's account balance increases, new dollars were spent into the economy. Prof. Stephanie Kelton's short video explains: https://realprogressives.org/mmt-basics/
