Ideas you have that might just Save the Economy

What would happen if all money, both physical and abstract, just disappeared tomorrow (e.g., everyone’s bank accounts drained, but wasn’t deposited elsewhere)?

Sounds like a Christopher Nolan film

There’d be a run on Tesco jam doughnuts.

I’ll get stockpiling in anticipation

Absolutely certain my sixth form economics teacher used this exact example to explain economic utility.

As a fat cat teacher at the top end of the pay spine because I’ve worked my way up educating young people for two decades, I say fair enough.

Farewell cruel world.

Would like to point out that don’t own more than one property though, obviously.

I doubt anyone’s seriously advocating wiping out half the country (including, assumedly, a fair amount of people they know personally). I’d consider it more of a glib dismissal of capitalism, but we all see things differently, and nobody wants a friday afternoon row, and i’d sooner not say anything on here that anybody finds offensive, so point taken.
