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!?!!?'"

If the entire world just stopped working for a few weeks it might.

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?"
