Is Sound Money the Answer? with George Gammon (WiM268)
The "What is Money?" Show
What Really Impacts Real GDP?
Government spending as a percentage of GDP went from 8% in 1900 to 20% by 1940. Even under a strict gold standard that we had with free banking in the 1800s, we still get a 400% M2. So if you consider that that is maybe not something that would be a constant, but it's definitely possible.
George Gammon is an entrepreneur and investor who has years of experience investing across multiple countries. We discuss the importance of education about taxation and small government, and the extent to which sound money is the solution for government overgrowth.
