Are You Telling Me Rome Falled Because They Devalued the Currency?

If inflation hadn't happened, they would have been able to continue to afford that. It's hard to properly quantify how absolutely upside down and broken economically this thing was - there was nothing you could do. I mean, on charley brown's going toquit kicking that football some day. That's what you run into here. And so i think that rome would have overcome all those other problems that people attribute its fall to. If inflation hadn't been running away, e could oud have coped with all the other stuff. The money worked. But the money quit working.
