I came across a book on the Federal Reserve on Amazon.com. I’ve ordered it but haven’t received it yet. The synopsis below really piques my interest. It goes into some background info on what the Federal Reserve is and how it affects the economy then makes the claim that a world currency is already designed, awaiting a crisis to justify its introduction. I’m not sure I agree with some of the stuff at the end of this synopsis but the idea of an engineered financial crisis doesn’t seem all that outlandish given the current state of affairs.
Which countries can agree on one thing enough to make a world currency? Who is collaborating on it? Could you post a summary when you’re done reading it?
OK; I’ll post a summary of the book after I’ve read it. By the way, some of the stuff at the bottom of the link I sent seems pretty crazy but I don’t think that has anything to do with the book on the Fed.
A global fiat currency? How would that even work without some kind of standard to compare it to? “We think that as a world our currency is worth one-hundred gazillion martian dollars” I can’t even fathom how it could be valued. Maybe someone can enlighten me. We could back it with gold but then why not go back to using gold, at least it’s more scarce then paper.
