Money in itself is a symbolic instrument used by governments to drive economy forward. Some Economic theories/ideas which claim to allow printing inflation free money, by taking advantage of the differential mobility of money (under different spending policies) and increasing production before increasing consumption.

Thoughts on this and on fiscal policy design for inflation free money ?
