So, why do we need to pay interest at all on our money supply? What would happen if the Treasury printed dollar bills instead of dollar bonds? Would this not greatly reduce the deficits?Couldn’t the corresponding inflation be controlled by increasing the amount of fractional reserves banks are required to keep on hand?
