A lot of the relevant researchers basically define complex systems as the systems that you don't or can't understand well enough to simply reset and restart, nor would that be an appropriate intervention strategy most of the time. Should we drain lakes and put in new soil and water every time there's an algal bloom? Similarly, you can't truly reset an economy, or a polity with anything we'd call "reasonable methods".
Eh, just remove all the laws and invalidate all the money every n years. I'm sure this will have no negative consequences.
Invalidating money every n years could work because it forces people to make an arrangement with people in the future. However, it would be simpler to introduce a three month expiry date to cash bills that demands you pay 1% once it expired, resulting in -4% interest per year. People will be glad to lend out money at 0% as they avoid the -4% interest on cash.
