Some of her history left much to be desired not because I was unfamiliar with it (which I am), but because her narrative seemed a bit pat. Yes, I can see how speculation and rampant short-selling might have helped hyperinflate the Weimar Mark and the Zimbabwe Dollar, but I doubt that could have been the only cause.

The Austrian school representatives getting their mugs on camera usually leave me with a bad taste in my mouth, but I concede I am willing to learn more about the tenets of their particular faith. If nothing else, I will be able to at least learn why I should be dismissive. ;-)
