"Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men's protection and the base of a moral existence." Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand, p. 387.

Finally we have it: Money THE definitive book on how your money is destroyed.

"Ye shall have honest weights and measures," Money's subtitle, is a paraphrase of an Old Testament passage (Deuteronomy 25:15). The passage for Money's subtitle tells us that criminals used dishonest weights and dishonest measures, monetary and otherwise, 2,700 years ago. This historical fact should help today's readers understand that we should not be surprised to learn that today's criminals use dishonest weights and dishonest measures against us. Today's shocking "dishonest weights and dishonest measures" — fractional-reserve banking, un-backed paper currency, and government deficits — are clearly explained in simple, conversational terms.

You might consider Money a mystery or crime book: It blows the whistle on how the world's most powerful crime syndicate pulled off history's largest crime: colossal international financial fraud, and murder and treason.

But because the perpetrators want to keep you in the dark, a clear explanation of their scheme has been hard to find. Money shows you in detail how the game is played. Here you'll learn how these people get your money by manipulating voters and the law.

Did you know that "fractional reserve" banking is today's financial hocus-pocus? Banking and political Insiders use it to cause inflation and thereby finesse trillions of dollars out of the pockets, purses, and bank accounts of everyone else.

Did you know there is no gold or silver backing U.S. paper currency today contrary to The united States Constitution, Article 1 Section 10 which states: " No State shall … make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts …"? Un-backed paper currency, today's dishonest weights and measures, is a crucial element of the scam.

This book escorts you into a financial underworld. You'll probe behind its mask of respectability and learn its deepest, darkest secrets. Money is about bankers, politicians, and theft by fraud. Money does not indict all bankers or all politicians but it does level serious charges against a small group the book refers to as "Insiders," meaning extremely wealthy persons who benefit by war and the threat of war, and who have allegedly provided financial and other aid to many of this century's most heinous dictators. If war (or the threat of war) makes markets move most rapidly, and it does, and if the Insiders are so powerful they can manipulate dictators so as to control the outbreak of war, then they may also manipulate political campaigns, parties, and office-holders. Money discusses this manipulation and the crimes that make it possible — and the punishments for those crimes, as is provided by U.S. law.

Money's Preface discusses "Verbicide" and explains how politicians, courts, and criminals manipulate or kill the meaning of words by maliciously misusing them. Specific instances of judicial misuse are included in the Preface and elsewhere in the book.

Money stresses the importance of always using the most formal, technically correct monetary terms, and to avoid using colloquial (imprecise) monetary terms. To make sure the reader fully understands the formal, technically precise meaning of a word, great attention is given to etymologies, examples of correct and incorrect usage, and to how imprecise but colloquial uses came to be widely misunderstood, even to the point of being incorporated into the law and judicial holdings.

Money ends by summarizing how this criminal syndicate operates, how it can be put out of business, and how the world will benefit when that happy day arrives.

A clear understanding of money and monetary terms should give every reader a healthy, positive, and exciting view of the future, not just for himself but also for his or her family. That's because Money not only describes an immense, gruesome crime, it also offers a workable solution to this problem — and thereby a solution to most of the rest of society's major problems.
