"The science of Economics cannot develop and cannot possibly be of use to humanity, unless it takes as its starting point the fact that gold is money and the center of the economic universe."

This is no more fact than is the statement that Mickey Mouse is God incarnate. Utter pygmy twaddle!!!

HSP is out of his flippin' mind. He has ignored thousands of years of history with its myriad examples of failed commodity currencies. How bloody stupid does he think we are? Bloody twits like HSP really piss me off, passing off his idiotic BELIEF as proven fact. He should be flogged. And I say that only because I do not believe in capital punishment.
