well it wouldnt be such an issue if you guys werent making caps next to impossible to obtain for most players, every time someone drops 30k on a base or whatever they do it disappears and the economy stays broken.  if you cut the refreshing of caps out of the game and  made it so that all the money spent on bases and mercs got redistributed to the city their in there would be no need to have a system that refreshes merchants with a limited number or caps, instead they would just have a trickle down effect and the merchants would have caps and people would be happy. all in all it would improve the game.

Solar:
Merchants already refresh a limited number of caps. This averages out to be about $45,000 per hour just from traders.

 As it is now we already have massess of caps on the server and it keeps steadily increasing. Theres no need for any more recycling of caps.

Aricvomit:
the only people its increasing for are the people that horde 2 million caps because they have everything they could ever need. when theres nothing left to buy they just horde the caps. what im saying is stop the refreshing and make it so the money in the wasteland circulates like it should. people only hoard stuff when its so scarce that you need too. its already been stated by other players they clear out all the merchants, vederas himself claims to make over 40k in an hour, maybe thats where all the caps go.

You need 9k caps to get a profession, you need about 10k caps each for a base. Unless everyone is a Charisma build and NEED! their mercs (which they aren't) then there is no great need for caps.

Aricvomit:
the people that hoard the 2 million caps are mostly pvp squads that get all their loot from pvp and sell it, while at the same time doing town control. after they buy their bunker what good are caps to them? oh and its much easier to sell stuff in northern towns when all you do is sit their with your full complement of town mercs and kill everyone that comes into town and then sell their stuff, hence increasing their supply even further.
