Why people recommend it

The Scandal of Money by George Gilder is an economic critique that examines how government manipulation of currency destabilizes markets and undermines true economic freedom. On an episode of Timcast IRL titled TRUMP WON, Canada & Mexico CAVE Over Tariffs, Elon NUKES Deep State w/Terry Schi broadcast on February 4, 2025, Terry Schilling recommended the book while discussing monetary policy and his organization's collaboration with the author. Terry Schilling noted that George Gilder had previously written the well-known 1990s book Life After Television, but emphasized that the volume written specifically for their group was titled The Scandal of Money. Describing it as a very worthwhile read, Terry Schilling explained that the publication provided valuable insights into the mechanics of currency, inflation, and the broader financial systems affecting modern society. He pointed to the text as an effective tool for understanding how current economic policies impact individual liberty and market stability. Through this recommendation, Terry Schilling encouraged the audience to explore George Gilder's arguments regarding the importance of sound money and the pitfalls of state-controlled financial institutions in shaping the contemporary economic landscape.
