An abstract concept evaluating the usage of expiring contracts
On April 15th, an amount of $2400 hit bank accounts in the US for many as part of the stimulus check.
If I see it from another perspective - most of thsoe who receive this money will be saving it instead of using it for expenses.
I am talking about those who still have jobs and earning money.
To provide a perspective - if the newly printed money is being distributed to individuals to boost the economy, it should be in circulation.
However, people are saving this chunk of money instead of spending it to boost economy and keep the engine running.
What if there is a concept of *expiring money* - something like airline credits or visa gift card with an end date.
That makes it possible to get the money printed to be spent within a specific time and there's no chance for anyone to hoard this for future.
Another idea spawned from this, which is more interesting - because it could help stop the corruption globally, if not in most of the developing nations.
A common means of corruption is the money leaking out
