I found the book a very easy and straight forward read. Steve Forbes makes many compelling arguments as to why a Gold Standard is the way to propel the US economy to greater growth and strength in the future. I read "Money" after seeing Mr. Forbes discuss the book on Fox where he said the value of the dollar should be fixed like an hour is a fixed amount of minutes or a foot is a fixed amount of inches. Wow! How simple but brilliant. I purchase materials for a design company, and my life would be far simpler--my efficacy far greater--if I did not have to constantly figure currency fluctuations.
