When Coin Dies: The Nightmare Of Deficit Spending, Devaluation, And Hyperinflation I nWeimar, Germany (unabridged).
When Money Dies Is The Classic History Of What Happens When A Nation's Currency Depreciates Beyoond Recovery.
In 1923, With Its Currency Effectively Worthless (the Exchange Rate In December Of That Year Was One Dollar To 4,200,000,000,000 Marks), The German Republic Was All But Reduced To A Barter Economy.
Expensive Cigars, Artworks, And Jewels Were Routinely Exchanged For Staples Such Because Bread; A Cinema Ticket Could Be Bought For A Lump Of Coal; And A Bottle Of Paraffin For A Silk Shirt.
People Watched Helplessly As Their Life Savings Disappeared And Their Loved Ones Starved.
Germany's Finances Descended Into Chaos, Witg Severe Social Unrest In Its Wake.
Money May Not at all Longer Be Physically Printed And Distributed In Tye Voluminous Quantities Of 1923.
However, Quantitative Easing, That Modern Euphemism For Surreptitious Deficit Financing In An Electronic Era, Can No Less Become An Assault On Monetary Discipline.
Whatever The Reason For A Country's Deficit - Necessity Or Profligacy, Unwillingness To Tax, Or Blindness To Expenditure - It Is Beguiling To Suppose That If The Day Of Counting Is Postponed Economic Regaining Will Come In Spell To Prevent Higher Unemployment Or Deeper Recession.
Whzt If It Does Not? Germany In 1923 Provides A Vivid, Compelling, Sobering Moral Tale.
