The money they’re printing isn’t being circulated because people are keeping it in their bank accounts and reducing spending. I think we’re in for something when things return to normal.

Money in bank accounts is being circulated through loans. Examples of money out of circulation are coins in a jar, rolls of twenties under the mattress, or bags of cash next to the remains of D.B. Cooper.
If everyone starts spending, doesn't that increase demand, and therefore push the economy into high gear? Doesn't everyone want more business?
