Again that is based on chromatics blog which he says is based on rothbards books - so to get to the heart of the matter some people with lots more time than me will have to dig up those books and see where rothbard got that figure or if chromatic misquoted rothbard - I do not know. Chromatic seems like a smart guy though - but even smart guys make mistakes - I welcome anymore fact finding you can provide from sources like rothbard and not from OFFICIAL numbers that I simply do not trust.


I don't think the difference between $1.1B and $.7B is material enough to make it worthwhile to do any research, especially since it would be in the Fed's and BLS' interest to not make it look as bad as it does... and the basic point is that I believe you to be more than a little incorrect on Hoover having been a big money printer, which was the original issue. My case has been stated, there are many facts I presented and there are no serious counter facts or studies, etc.
