Short message is this: Society can not sustain exchanging nothing (fiat currency in all its forms) for something indefinitely. After bigger and bigger bubbles comes inevitable crash, revolutions and wars which can either improve situation and reset free markets or make it worse and bring totalitarianism. Without getting rid off banking cartel and reseting gold standard asap, history will repeat itself.

the most amazing thing is that Mises describes in a sinthetic way the housing and stock bubbles, more than 60 years before they had happened.

A more accurate translation of the last sentence:

Best thing is for man
well understood and acute
silent, but can chat,
and to draw sensible,
to speak what is not appropriate,
when they could be silent
or think of what you speak,

or keep quiet, pretend to be voiceless.

No ONE is telling the REAL truth except for Mises.

Not Govt, Not Media & certainly NOT the socialist bastion of Academe - where our suited puppets in Govt learn how to retell old lies of the Keynesians & central planners.

Mises has 7 TB's of free mp3 lectures, republished OOP books, and so much scholarship and logic against the stupid-like-a-fox bankers/FED and thegovt they run with the purse strings that has caused ALL economic panics and wars for private profit at public expense. FTWTB!
