If you are thinking the Greenbacks were a failure you haven't bothered to research what forces collected themselves to destroy them.

I notice you don't stoop to deal with Dillaye's data. Dommage Why should we worry about whether Dillaye's other affairs impress us? Or what academic institutions are associated with White. These don't establish the veracity of White's work, only his wealth, from whatever source.

Schacht, of Germany is another hardly known, and yet among the finest banking minds of the 20th century. Schacht ended Weimar inflation and engineered Germany's rise in the 1930s, and that without any help from the other industrialized western countries, or their so-called money. What universities did he endow? None. Who cites him? Almost none. Do you know how he did it? Not likely.

For sure, you are in tune with current monetary affairs, so you will not need to heed the history that was, but can delight in the partial history of your and White's imagination. There are many in that latter camp.

My gain in this discussion is to bring these sources to light. You have helped immensely as so many read your posts. Many thanks.

Live well and prosper.
