“Here's how he puts it in his book, The Curse of Cash. Cash lies at the heart of some of today's most intractable public finance and monetary problems. And getting rid of most cash could help more than you might think.”
Discussed
“There are a lot of people who see cash very differently than a Harvard economist like Ken Rogoff. On Amazon.com, for instance, his book has a disproportionate share of one-star reviews. Here's a typical one.”
Discussed
“When the Wall Street Journal published an excerpt of Rogoff's book covering this idea, the comments section exploded with charges of statism and worse.”
