Rothbard’s detailed review of the many specific actors in the debate of the early 1800s, when the banking system was in its formative stage, suggests that policy discussions back then were more sophisticated than now.

Bill Baker is the founder of Gaineswood Investment Management and GARP Research. His real world experience as an institutional analyst and portfolio manager has built upon a deep curiosity of economics and history, leading him to adopt an Austrian perspective. As an economics major at University of Pennsylvania he developed a strong interest in the Great Depression, and this line of inquiry combined with his intimate knowledge of financial markets led him to author Endless Money, which was published by Wiley & Sons in 2009. He is also a graduate of The Amos Tuck School at Dartmouth College.
