I wonder what would happen if we just stopped printing money. Told the fed to just "turn off the tap" so to speak. I'd love to hear the conversation with their accountant: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN '[I] HAVE ALL THE MONEY!?!!?'"

    I WONDER What would happen if we stopped printing money. Explore the idea ANYWAY. Ever hear the saying "It's so crazy it just might work?"

    I wonder what if instead of a dick you had a sepulka, what the implications of that?
    The answer is nothing, that's not how any of that works.

    Capping currency reserves is a better standard of value than debt ever was. Perhaps you should go look up WHY money has value in the first place because you seem to be unaware that this is all made up anyway. It also makes cutting off money gluttons like one cuts a drunk off at a bar a lot easier to justify.
