We can fix the economy by burning our money.

In the past years, we've evidently seen how effective laissez faire economics can be, especially with the incite into Keynesian economics that the 2008 recession gave us. Basically put, the economy does better when the consumers spend more money, and when the dollar being spent is worth more. Now, inflation has absolutely plagued this country. I mean, just [url=http://i.imgur.com/daE9bl5.jpg]look at this graph[/url]. Obviously inflation effects the things that are more important to succeeding in life, because inflation is the devils work. There's a simple solution to the problem Satin himself has given us, this dreaded inflation. If there are less dollars, that means each dollar is worth more. So, I posit we should burn out money. As aforementioned, the economy grows more when less money is in the hands of consumers, and more is in the system, so the easiest way to do this would be drastically decrease the amount of money consumers hold. Also, we could decrease taxes by doing this. The more money you burn, the less taxes you pay! This way the rich will be contributing greatly to the economy, as they don't want to pay taxes, and have enough money to burn to assure that they don't. I mean, unless you can think of another solution, this is pretty much the only way we can stop this horrid inflation plague.
