Expensive cigars, artworks, and jewels were routinely exchanged for staples such as bread; a cinema ticket could be bought for a lump of coal; and a bottle of paraffin for a silk shirt. People watched helplessly as their life savings disappeared and their loved ones starved. Germany&#8217;s finances descended into chaos, with severe social unrest in its wake.<\/p>\n<p>Money may no longer be physically printed and distributed in the voluminous quantities of 1923. However, &#8220;quantitative easing,&#8221; that modern euphemism for surreptitious deficit financing in an electronic era, can no less become an assault on monetary discipline. Whatever the reason for a country&#8217;s deficit\u2014<br \/>\nnecessity or profligacy, unwillingness to tax or blindness to expenditure\u2014it is beguiling to suppose that if the day of reckoning is postponed economic recovery will come in time to prevent higher unemployment or deeper recession. What if it does not? Germany in 1923 provides a vivid, compelling, sobering moral tale.<\/p>\n<h3>When Money Dies<\/h3>\n<p>The Nightmare of Deficit Spending, Devaluation, and Hyperinflation in Weimar Germany<br \/>\nBy: Adam Fergusson<br \/>\nNarrated by: John Curless<br \/>\nLength: 11 hrs and 49 mins<br \/>\nRelease date: 01-13-26<br \/>\nLanguage: English<br \/>\nFormat and Bitrate: M4B@65 kbps<br \/>\nSize: 339.57 MB<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rapidgator.net\/file\/1aaae5c4f2c014871e6d34abff592ed1\/Adam_Fergusson__-_When_Money_Dies_.m4b.html\"><strong>Download from RapidGator<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cloudfam.io\/3410d6b915d7\"><strong>Download from CloudFam<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The classic history of the political and economic devastation wrought by runaway inflation in Weimar Germany\u2014\u201cbrilliant\u201d (Guardian) In 1923, with<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23408,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[127],"tags":[4470],"class_list":["post-23407","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-history","tag-adam-fergusson","comments-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
