Chapter 6, Page 170 - "The Institutional Problem Of Money" from “Balance of Payments”. Nominalist' money) can be brought...

Working on some cool charts but no time yet to post. Let it be widely known that I first called this 2 years ago. It actually surprised even me how relevant that post remains.

Screwtape Files: The Big Picture

Central banks have conti...
