Increasing the money supply puts more money in the hands of individuals, although increasing the money supply can cause inflation and the government to go into more debt, by stimulating the economy more people invest and consume which results in economic growth and more jobs.

The value of the American dollar would go down drastically. By doing that it would increase the prices of basically anything and everything. It will place our country in an immense debt and could potentially have our country fail.
