GIMMICKRY: In the Search for More Money [Whatever Works in the Scheme of Things]

America's direction is rabid deficit spending which moves the economy. Wealth aside, this business appears a no win since Congress mortgaged America for spending money. The reverse mortgage for seniors follows the same path. The senior is asked to sacrifice equity for spending money.

The book traces a history of money in America, past and present. America today, like other countries in the global scheme of things, is a domesticated international. Great Britain ruled for two and a half centuries; pound sterling was the exchange, this during America's emergence. There was a transfer of power after two World Wars. America and the Soviet Union took up the pace. The dollar exchange won out in 1989.
