Informative documentary and history of currency and the gold standard (and lack thereof).
I like the point that fiat is currency that circulates by governmental force - Think of forcing water through an internal combustion truck motor with an electrical water pump. What happens to the truck when the pump fails or the electric power is cut off!?
Thanks for sharing. Resteemed and upvoted.
