I WONDER What would happen if we stopped printing money. Explore the idea ANYWAY. Ever hear the saying "It's so crazy it just might work?"

I wonder what if instead of a dick you had a sepulka, what the implications of that?

Capping currency reserves is a better standard of value than debt ever was. Perhaps you should go look up WHY money has value in the first place because you seem to be unaware that this is all made up anyway. It also makes cutting off money gluttons like one cuts a drunk off at a bar a lot easier to justify.
