You are describing legalized money laundering designed to tie up money and keep it out of circulation.

It will keep inflation away until it doesn’t, as some day the consequences of printing money will be felt. One of the most negative influences of civilization has been people hoarding wealth, and we’re reverting to an environment that empowers that.

You'll only feel the consequences of printing money if productivity and population stop rising, and seeing as how the earth in infinitely large, I don't see that happening!

Population is leveling off. Only developing nations are still growing in general. Your assumption, as those printing money, is equally flawed.

Money printing was a hack to deal with the economic money supply problems caused by the crazy population growth of the 19th and 20th centuries.
