"Superb non-technical examples of just how much "money matters". Fun reading for economic history types as well as people interested in monetary economics. Leftists may enjoy a good exposition of the monetary policies of 19th century American populists (including William Jennings Bryan)."
"Substantial inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon. To produce continuing inflation, one requires a printing press on which one can turn out those pieces of paper that we call money. Thus it is folly to blame inflation on anyone but the government.
A metallic standard (gold, silver, or bi-metallic) necessarily introduces volatility to price levels and leads to an inefficient allocation of resources, but it also disciplines the government's printing presses.
The Nobel Prize winner also provides a compelling explanation of how FDR's ill-conceived silver policy aided the communist revolution in China."
