Here I start with the basics and conclude with the financial crisis. The origins of money, how money creation was taken over by government, why deflation isn’t a problem, how even low inflation can devastate the average person, how central banking creates instability and moral hazard, and more. These are my remarks at Liberty Fest Houston 2015.
