prices go up?

Why.

Help.

Why is government printing more money and giving it to me a bad thing. I need it to live.

I’d like both the econ101 (fake, lib, propaganda) and the marxist (real, truth, based) answer pls.

Mega eli5: imagine a measuring tape with notches for each billion in economy, and you measure amount of stuff in economy by this tape. If you increase amount of notches by 2, but still measuring exact same thing (same size of economy), you will receive doubled results on any measurement you get.
