>take a few hundred from the bank and physical set it on fire keep doing it until you don’t care

That sounds bad. Why not give it to a homeless guy or to charity or something?

>it’s illegal

Honestly, the central banks can go to hell. They can print way more money than you can ever burn, which they do, even far too much of it, bringing us to where we are today.

You are simultaneously saying that destroying money is a bad thing and that creating money is a bad thing.

There is no "natural" amount of money.
