To the Chancellor

October 15, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Question to the Chancellor:

In addition to raising money through taxing and borrowing, what prevents you from spending “green” or “public” credit into the economy?

Trusting that Leonard Cohen’s music continues to cheer you up, [Tower of Song and First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin]

Looking forward to your response,

Open Letter to the Chancellor

According to BBC News, the economy is so bad that the Chancellor went to the Leonard Cohen concert for upliftment. Between Everybody Knows, Closing Time and Halleluja, I would of course recommend First We Take Manhattan, then we Take Berlin

It was a delight to hear that you also enjoyed the Leonard Cohen concert!

As Chancellor you have the power to do something for the real economy since the financial economy is crippling it in unforgivable ways.

The real economy needs Cash as a medium of exchange. Also known as M0, it is issued by the State and is interest-free. Unfortunately, its share of the money supply has gone down from 48% to less than 3% since World War II.
