ECONOMICS 101: While inflation has many causes one of its primary exciters is too much currency chasing too few goods. In other words: if everyone were a millionaire a loaf of bread would cost $1,000. Poor people actually keep prices down as suppliers attempt to reach as broad a market spectrum as production costs will allow.
By paying people to not work:
A) the non-workers do not, by definition, produce thus lowering the number of goods available to be spent on the ever-increaasing cash supply.
B) the cash supply increases because cash is being fed into the system independent of productive output, i.e. paying non-producers
C) productivity will further decrease when people realize they can be paid for doing nothing. You will have to write a law that will dictate who is allowed to not work for a living and who must support them.
D) those who do remain productive will see their wages and profits evaporate as they pay for non-producers thus limiting their ability to act as consumers in particularly critical ways, i.e. investment, retooling, hiring etc.
