If one did, would it be a good idea to be constantly advertising that fact? What if authorities crack down? It's supposed to be stimulus and not take the money and stash it in your own monetary system-ulus.
Giving your citizens some money and enforcing a specific usage for it sounds scary - pretty close to what a communist party would do. If the gov truly cared about where the money goes, then they'd instead give each citizen a check that can only be used in shops.
But to me, it seems like they only want to pull that recession closer. They don't seem to care about where the stimulus checks go; they care more about pumping more money into circulation ..
