Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes a solution to the issue of excessive interest rates as a response to a drain of gold from a country's reserves. The author argues that this policy of raising interest rates is both unjust and ineffective, and instead suggests the government issue a national convertible currency not based on the gold standard. This, the author claims, would provide a greater degree of security and stability to the nation's economy. The book delves into the history of monetary policy, particularly in England, and presents a detailed analysis of the effects of raising interest rates on the economy. The author provides evidence to challenge the efficacy of the policy and concludes that raising interest rates is a harmful practice that should be replaced with a more sensible and practical solution such as the one proposed in this book.
