The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

government policy definitely has the greatest power to create (or destroy) wealth, there are a lot of things wrong with economic policy in this country, but floating currency exchange is not one of those problems.

  • I would argue that any policy that allows the government to print money freely and inflate the currency is a major thing wrong with a country.

    • the best way to expand your worldview is to consider that time series charts do not tell a whole, or even accurate, story, a lot of the time. for example, looking at a chart of a line going up and to the right for money supply isn't as meaningful as you think it is.
