If money can just be created, which causes inflation by lowering the value of all dollars, newly printed and already in circulation. Then why wouldn't destroying a dollar be at least as good (in terms of the dollar's value) as printing is bad?

Who would "pay" for it?

No one needs to pay for it? You're creating more than $1 value for every $1 you destroy. Are you not?

E;

I thought it was obvious, I guess I gave you guys too much credit. I clearly don't mean the few physical dollars being the ones to be destroyed unless necessary (wear/ tear etc.) But (((digital))) dollars create through the many systems all behind (((fractional reserve))) etc.

In sound money land sure. However, for every physical dollar that exists, millions are created in digital form. We dont even know where these dollars exist, or where they are stashed, and when you account for compound inflation and derivatives, for every dollar that is "lost", thousands are made out of thin air

For every dollar that was removed, two would take its place. You understand the jews can't resist counterfeiting.

This is a theory of function not reality.

In that case, the theory is sound. It just won't ever be implemented.

Your confusing supply and demand w/ jewish mysticism.

Fractional reserve banking is the main driving force of inflation.

Multiple Trillions of dollars do not exist physically.

The data tables below list the value and volume of U.S. currency in circulation calculated in billions. As of December 31, 2020, there was $2,040.7 billion in circulation, totaling 50.3 billion notes in volume.

The ultimate Jew trick , lend " money " that you don't even have.

Earn interest on money for which the government insures. No liability and fully insured while earning interest.

No value is created, it's just transferring the value of that dollar to all the others.

I didn't say value was created though. I said each of the now lower amount of dollars has more value. "value" remains static. That's what inflation is, value is X and the # of units of currency increases for no reason. So value is the same but not per unit of currency.

You did right here:

You're creating more than $1 value for every $1 you destroy.

Money is lent into existence. Zero dollars at the bank is split into a loan and debt. When the debt is paid back, the money reverts to zero. Reducing lending will stop inflation.

That's right. Taxes destroy dollars. They print new dollars to pay for nigger gibs and buy steak and cake for friends. Then they take your dollars and destroy them. This controls inflation. Thanks.

There is this false understanding that dollars are created physically. Many of the dollars created are just numbers in a computer. It's not like the bank you use has the same amount of paper cash that is found in all the accounts of all the customers.

Wouldn’t you have to let everyone who uses dollars know that you destroyed yours?

No. Why would that be necessary? value, purchasing power is a nebulous stat that people don't really think about or track unless they're in that type of economics.

[–] • 0 pt

Is purchasing power reflective of how much money people think exists, or how much actually exists?

Like you said, not my area of expertise.

Actual but it's based off of the value of that money. A $1 that can buy a can of Campbell soup has more purchasing power than $3 that can only buy one.

Yeah they already remove money from circulation because of that. The federal reserve still sucks though.

When the dollar was backed by the gold standard your theory would be agreeable. This is not the case.
