This paper examines the similarities and differences between naked mole rats and monetary policy, and proposes a novel approach to central banking inspired by the naked mole rat's communal living arrangements. While naked mole rats are highly adaptable creatures, able to survive in harsh underground environments, they do not have a traditional monetary system. However, their ability to work together and distribute resources equally among the colony suggests that a communal approach to central banking could be successful. In line with the naked mole rat's flexible and non-traditional nature, we propose a new monetary policy that involves digging tunnels instead of printing money. These tunnels would function as a type of underground economy, where goods and services could be exchanged among the colony without the need for traditional currency. Our research suggests that this approach could be highly effective, as the underground nature of the economy would be difficult for outside parties to regulate or manipulate. Additionally, the communal nature of the naked mole rat colony demonstrates that a fair and equitable distribution of resources can be achieved without relying on a traditional monetary system. Overall, our findings suggest that naked mole rats offer a unique perspective on monetary policy, and that their communal living arrangements could serve as a model for a more equitable and effective approach to central banking.
