'What Has Government Done to Our Money?

' by Murray Rothbard, explores the history and theory of money, arguing that government control of money leads to inflation, business cycles, and economic instability.

Rothbard advocates for a free market in money, where individuals and private institutions can choose and use competing currencies.

He traces the manipulation of money throughout history, showing how governments have debased coins, suspended convertibility, and established central banks to control the money supply.

The book champions a gold standard or other commodity-backed currencies as a means of limiting government power over money.

Rothbard critiques fractional reserve banking, arguing that it is inherently fraudulent and leads to unsustainable credit expansion.

His work has been influential in the Austrian School of economics and among advocates of sound money policies.
