HENRY GEORGE AND THE MONEY QUESTION

There’s a widely held belief that George’s views on money were not well developed, that he waited until his last book to really delve into that topic, and left it, sadly, unfinished. However, monetary scholar Stephen Zarlenga contends that by 1884, George already had a very advanced understanding of how money works and that it is still relevant today. In this webinar, Dr. Marty Rowland will summarize Zarlenga’s findings on money, demonstrating that George spoke often about money, even in earlier books, including Social Problems, Protection and Free Trade, and in his newspaper, The Standard.

    Masters of Money: Now, More than Ever. And Just in Time – Frederick Soddy’s Winning Trifecta

    In this first session of our Masters of Money series, Joe Bongiovanni will engage in a conversation on Nobel laureate Dr. Frederick Soddy’s unique work on the national economy’s broken “wealth-distributing” mechanism via our existing money system, and on society’s need for achieving ecological balance . The talk will highlight Soddy’s relevance by discussing his pioneering contribution on ‘internalizing’ the cost of environmental degradation that is regularly ‘externalized’ in today’s model of Finance Capitalism.

    Joe Bongiovanni is, perhaps uniquely, a second-generation monetary reformer and the former Director of Vermont’s Kettle Pond Institute for Debt-Free Money. Joe is a Founding Member of the U.S.-based Alliance For Just Money (Inc.) and for over a decade Joe has been a regular speaker at the American Monetary Institute’s (AMI) Annual Monetary Reform Conference.
