I actually don't recommend the Bitcoin standard to people any more because of those parts of the book. While he's not necessarily wrong on the food part, He could have left all that crap out along with the personal attacks on keynes and it would have been a much more concise convincing book imo.
💯- this is why I prefer Broken Money. Although more dense, it’s also more objective (as is most of Lyn’s writing).
🤝 agreed.
What are you recommending now then?
Broken money. But before that books like "economics in one lesson" and "Creature from Jekyll Island" depending on the person. Personally, I get anyone to read anything about Bitcoin now a days until they understood how fucked up our current monetary system is. IMO people need to understand the current state of things before getting a solution shoved in their face.
