The people who think we should manipulate the money to "incentivize consumption" have such a bonkers and contradictory duality of ideas as to how people behave that I can't wrap my head around it.
News Flash! You will NEVER need to encourage people to consume stuff, this is the whole purpose of everything and a fundamental axiom of being alive. Nobody wants to live like a pauper for no reason.
The ONLY thing you incentivize by doing this, is WASTE
The point is if you give people free money they will spend it.
There is no need to โincentivize consumptionโ.
