Then, this MODERN system was suddenly called "neoliberalism" and it was all blamed on Hayek despite him relentlessly attacking any form of monetary policy and/or fiat money. In fact, the Austrian School is based upon the truth that fiat funny money is the CAUSE of the boom/bust cycle and wealth transfers to the elite from the masses. <br /><br />I've asked this question about 48 times: How can you call an illegal, unconstitutional computer generated government run and mandated MODERN fiat funny money system "market based" or capitalism? <br /><br />Just to be clear, I'm accusing you all of endless lying and engaging in journalistic and academic fraud.
