Writing and researching this thread 👇 on history' most dramatic Easter crime rewarded me with understanding another important piece of the monetary policy puzzle. Read on, and you soon see what I mean. My journey can now be summed up in this way: 1. When I wrote Fraudcoin I realized that monetary policy is about manipulating the money supply with - inflation, - deflation, and - channelization of the stock of money. 2. Before I wrote UNBAR I had realized that in principle we only have two different types of monetary systems, something which became the backbone of this book No. 2 on money from me. These systems were: - monetary freedom, and - monetary monopoly However, I still thought that monetary monopoly mainly would be abused with inflation, deflation and channelization of the money supply. 3. And then, today I realized that the problem is monopoly itself, even if the monopolist doesn't inflate, deflate or channelize the money supply. No - the monopolist can and will use his monopoly to set up a virtual wall between people who just want to interact with each other in a cooperative manner. The monopolist then abuses his monopoly by charging a monopoly price for his money. Since this is a monopoly that in reality takes control over the most powerful social network that humankind has seen, the monetary system, it will in itself constitute a massive instrument for wealth extraction and concentration of political power.
