but dramatically reducing the money supply would destroy the economy.

So just keep printing, and inflating?

We are suffering through 9% inflation now. How much higher do you want it to "save" the economy?

Tell me, Mr. Central Planner, what the ideal amount of "money" is?

I didn't say that. Inflation is bad, and we can solve it by reducing government spending and raising interest rates. What you're proposing, however, is crazy. You want to effectively get rid of money altogether. Bad idea!

I'm not a central planner. Sorry to disappoint!
