"Does that mean when it comes to the federal debt, there really is a free lunch?"

Of course not. There is a cost associated with it. In this case, probably inflation.

"The effects on the economy will still be a net negative."

Not necessarily. Granted, it all depends on what actually happens, and we don't know what will. But we are probably looking at having to rework the whole global economy. Now, we can stand by and watch all the balls hit the ground and then try to pick up the pieces. Or we can try to do something.
