There wouldn’t be any money for taxpayers to pay if the government hadn’t first printed it and spent it on goods and services, eventually ending up in the paychecks of taxpayers .
Of course it wouldn’t be there, I’m not saying that the government spending money at all is bad.
What is bad is the government spending too much money, so much that they introduce way too much money into the economy, making the rest worthless.
Obviously it’s a combination of factors, but printing (and then introducing) a shitton of money will have very direct effects on the value of the currency.
Whether or not you need a government to manage money is neither here nor there. The specific monies that the US & Argentina specifically have are sovereign fiat monies, which are controlled by their governments.

If there’s hyperinflation, it means that said loan isn’t being paid back, far from it actually.

Money naturally emerges in all civilizations, you don’t need a government to centrally manage it. You lack basic economic understanding.
Oh I see, you’re a bitcoin stan. Tell me more about your galaxy-brained understanding of economics 😂
Ad hominem, why am I not surprised?
From David Greaber’s and Michael Hudson’s work, I think I have a better understanding than most.
