I personally believe the economy is as good as it's going to get no matter what we try and do to it. Even if we reset it back to nothing, some people will grow wealthy while others maintain a small amount. Nothing we do will change how people play the economy unless we take absolute control over everything (total communism) which wouldn't be fun at all for anyone participating in the economy now.
What set this campaign to fix the economy off is probably the fact that we have several shops that are now inactive, which isn't the fault of the economy. People become interested and not interested in playing the economy or even minecraft. Let them do what they want. Changing the name behind the currency, changing the interest rate, changing the UI of the shops isn't going to make people keep up their shop when they become inactive.
Another thing that might have started it is the large difference between the most successful shop owners and miners who have done well playing the economy. Those changes won't change the fact that people will rise above others drastically if they put the effort into it. It's kind of insulting to them to take great efforts to reduce their achievements after all their hard work (or good fortune). The fact that there hasn't been that much inflation is a sign that these people aren't malicious to your precious economy... if they wanted they could buy out every shop for weeks until prices went so high no one could afford anything. What harm are they doing the economy? xD

Those who fight for justice must walk a narrow path, for those who complain about the injustice of the world usually end up being the ones committing those injustices later on.
