GoldMoney podcast: Tom Woods questions modern money

25 Mar

Tom Woods for GoldMoney

While I was at the Austrian Economics Research Conference, in Auburn, I had the great pleasure of speaking to Tom Woods. I questioned him about his thoughts on the ‘Greenbacker’ movement, a group of people who want to end the power of the Federal Reserve, to give money printing power directly to the U.S. government instead. As the Americans say, go figure…

Episode 111: Best selling author, historian and www.libertyclassroom.com founder, Tom Woods speaks with GoldMoney Foundations’ Andy Duncan at the Austrian Economics Research Conference 2013 in Auburn Alabama.

Tom spells out his case on why he thinks The Greenbackers are wrong, also a subject of a paper discussed at this years conference. His clear and concise arguments are a pleasure to listen to and he seems to be able to cut through so much of the inconsistencies in the arguments, of those in favour of a debt based monetary system.

If the dollar is great, why does it need monopoly protection? Tom intelligently questions the current status and what needs to change. A hardworking intellectual whom is doing what he can to educate and inform people about the subject of money. Something which is so fundamentally important to our lives but not given much thought.

Michael McKay GoldMoney podcast

I’m currently in Auburn, Alabama, at the Mises Institute, where I have been attending the Austrian Economics Research Conference. I’ve also been interviewing some of the speakers, sponsors, and attendees for GoldMoney Foundation. Here is my first interview, with Michael McKay, the host and founder of Radio Free Market, mainly on the subject of the Cyprus financial event.

Episode 108: On behalf of the GoldMoney Foundation, Andy Duncan interviews Michael McKay on the eve of the Austrian Economics Research Conference 2013. This vibrantly intellectual event is being hosted at the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama.

Since 1996 scholars have gathered annually at this event to bring together research from the field of Austrian economics.

Michael McKay is host and founder of Radio Free Market and a scholar of Austrian economics.

Andy and Michael discuss Cyprus and what it may means to individual property rights, the euro project and the future nature of money.

They then discuss a few of the ideas and concepts that will be the focus of some lectures at the Austrian Economics Research Conference 2013. McKay considers whether hyperinflation can happen and the current global fiat currency architecture.
