- This is the book that changed the way I looked at the world
As a university-trained and licensed financial professional, I fully accepted the monetary status quo. Like most people, I probably would have never given the Federal Reserve System a second thought if I had not been drawn into libertarian political philosophy, based in large part by my appreciation for what I considered "the free market."

When I first encountered anti-Fed arguments, it did not make me abandon the views of the Wall Street Journal (to which I faithfully subscribed) or Kudlow & Company (which was set on "Season Pass" on my TiVo), but rather, I steadfastly defended the Fed in the face of largely baseless and inaccurate attacks by people who had watched Freedom to Fascism and skimmed through The Creature from Jekyll Island. These people were so irrational and so flat-out wrong, that I dismissed Ron Paul's monetary views as crankery and thought he was a good candidate "in spite" of his ... Read More

- Tell the Central Banks to stop DEFLATING OUR MONEY!!!
President Calvin Coolidge got rid of the Federal Reserve Bank because he AND our Forefathers, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, ALL agreed that placing our ENTIRE economy in the hands of a few BANKERS is a VERY bad idea.

Well, faster forward to 2008 and here we are. The Federal Reserve and the families that control it run virtually our ENTIRE WORLD.

There are Federal Banks in EVERY developed nation and together they can manipulate the ENTIRE world's economy. WHY ISN'T ANYONE DOING ANYTHING!? Are we all so COMFORTABLE with our lives that we will just BLINDLY let them STEAL our RIGHTS? (Patriot Act, 'Undisclosed' Evidence, Indefinite Political Prison Sentences)

- Another great book by a great Politician! Murray Rothbard would be proud!
Though I am not what one would call
a 'gold bug', I have to admit that
Congressman Ron Paul is right about
the gold standard and what has hap-
pended to our manipulated dollar!

- Clarifies the issues
Lately, if you argue that we ought to return to the gold standard, most people will look at you like you're out of your mind. Unfortunately, most people don't really understand economics.

Read this book if:
- You aren't quite sure what the gold standard is or why we should do it, or if you've never really thought about the issue.
- You're absolutely convinced that the idea is crazy.
- You don't understand what's wrong with inflation or the effect it's having on you.
- You're concerned with the direction of the economy.
- You already believe in the gold standard and want to learn how to defend it better.
- You're a voter. The gold standard may be a big issue in the 2008 election. Plus, Ron Paul himself is running for President; if you're not familiar with him, this book is a great way to find out more about a lot of his positions on economics (I'd also recommend his "Mises ... Read More
