Reconstruction of America's Constitutional Systems of Money and Banking

Michael S. Rozeff, on June 2, 2010, published the final section, part thirteen, of his brilliant story on America's decline into unconstitutional money, entitled "The U.S. Constitution and Money".

Rozeff's mission is to summarize one of my favorite monetary books of all time, Edwin Vieira’s Pieces of Eight: The Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the United States Constitution.

Part thirteen of the series is on reconstruction and Rozeff states, "It spells out the specific changes that will restore a constitutional money and a constitutional banking system. It explains why this should be done and how it is feasible. It provides an idea of what will happen and what to expect as it is being done. The article also explains some of Vieira’s thoughts on the political issues involved in reform and his idea of making officeholders subject to absolute liability. My postscript places the Constitution and money issue into a broader Misesian-Hayekian framework."
