This blog is about sound money. It discusses deficit spending, inflation, interest rates, central banks, and whether gold may soon replace the US$ as the world’s reserve currency. It proposes that we would be more prosperous if we were free to choose our preferred currency, and borrowers and lenders were free to set their own interest rates. Sound money is essential for our liberty and our economic well-being.

Leonard Read advanced a moral vision of liberty built on personal responsibility, free markets and limited government. Gary Galles’ Freedom in One Lesson brings these ideas to life for today’s debates, showing their relevance to voices like Charlie Kirk. Read’s insights into ethical governance, voluntary cooperation and the roots of prosperity remain essential for a free and prosperous society.
