Ever since I entered graduate school in 2005 I have had a (probably unhealthy) obsession with the economy, poiltics, and investing. This is all the more interesting because I was ( and hopefully will be again ) studying computer science. After reading quite a bit I have come to two real conclusions:
- I am a Constitutionalist and a Libertarian
- Our economic problems ( and quite possibly our political problems) are based on our monetary system
I believe my first conclusion explains itself. If you read the US Constitution or the writings of the founding fathers, then you know that you should be a libertarian who believes in the US Constitution. Enough said.
My second conclusion merits a bit more explaining. As it is, I believe it is wise of me to defer to those who have already made this argument. So let me stand on the shoulders of giants and send you here (The Case For Natural Money) to begin. I’ll most likely say more about this soon.
