All those reasons are a cheap excuse for the government to print money to pay the bills.
The government is printing money at a rate of 1 trillion dollars every 100 days.
The Federal Reserve ordered between $180.5 billion to $204.4 billion to be printed for calendar year 2024. This is the 3rd lowest volume in the past 10 years. I'm not sure where you're getting your numbers from.
