Ron Paul talks about our current monetary crisis and gives you a very in depth history of money and banking in the United States. Good read for anyone looking to understand why we need sound money and how to do it without bringing down the system. If you do believe in the value of gold and came across this book while you were looking for a book on how to safely buy and invest in gold, here are the two I have liked best so far:
Stack Silver Get Gold - How to Buy Gold and Silver Bullion without Getting Ripped Off!
and
Rich Dad's Advisors: Guide to Investing In Gold and Silver: Protect Your Financial Future

If you trace back every single economic issue and many social issues, you will find that soundness of money is the root cause of it. When you give the power of money creation in the hands of government and central banks, eventually it will promote a lot of cronyism and corruption. Politicians are able to promise their constituents things that they would not otherwise be able to. Citizens will start expecting things that they would otherwise not expect.
The irony of this all is that it is the middle class and poor in every society that get bought into the rosy promises of paper currency and it is the same class that has most to lose from it. They fail to realize that paper currency lacks the objective standard of money. Would you exchange the fruits of your labor for free? Well, that's what you do when you accept paper currency in the long run. With Gold standard or any commodity backed money, you exchange value for value.
Wake up America before you are destroyed by this monster.

This book provides a detailed history of the actions taken by financial controllers at the highest level, principally in the United States, but also throughout the entire Western world, over a relatively recent period, and right through to the present, which enables any interested person to be able to form a well-informed opinion of the process of financial management employed by various governments and the consequences of those actions, and to wonder how the present politicians and financial controllers could possibly repeat the mistakes that have been repeatedly made when the consequences are so predictable.
Of course, there is at least one answer, that is that what we perceive as mistakes are, in actuality, not mistakes, but deliberate choices of courses of action in the absolute awareness of their fatal potential, and that they bring about results that the authors of those choices would gain significant benefits from them.
Would the trusted guardians of out nation's treasures act in such a counter-productive manner?
Surely not!

I agree with what some other reviews have said: there are a few typographical errors, and I actually found it difficult to figure out when the book was written. I think it was written during the Reagan administration... with that fact aside, it is still a valuable piece of insight into how money works, and should be read by everyone who is interested in economics and by politicians. I love Ron Paul, he is my hero, and this report is a good read, especially for $0.01.

This is an interesting book concerning U.S. financial history. I learned several things fro it. If you liked Griffin's "Creature From Jekyll Island" you will probably like this also. This book is valuable to the serious researcher of the federal reserve system and Constitutional money. Overall a good book.

Great explanation of the ill effects of monetary and credit inflation from 1971-1981, how it's pulled off, and the suggested reforms and return to gold backed money, the outcomes of the reforms or continuance of the fraudulent non-redeemable paper currency. It seems that the hard lessons are yet to be learned.

I learned of the Nixon shock in 1971, when in college. Chickens coming home to roost. I flushed out of the stock market last year, the final chapter is yet to be written. Bankers and wall streeters will be known as the greatest villains of our time.
