The government are a bit late with this. There is already a system that encourages it. It's called LETS. Printing money in a LETS system actually creates wealth without doing anyone any harm :D.

Hilarious. I liked this bit.
However critics have pointed out that given the current cost of ink cartridges, the cost of printing out a twenty pound note is approximately twenty pounds.

We are now officially running the country under the rules of Monopoly.

The Bank can never go broke, and if it runs short of cash simply creates more using ordinary paper.

If you are unlucky enough to find yourself in Jail you can get out early by handing over a large wodge of cash.

I've written to the Chancellor asking for my £200 for passing Go.

I'm having a cuppa in Morrisons car park at the moment. There's a big sign over the cash machines that says "24 HR CASH". Does this means you have a day to spend it within a day or the ink fades?
