Sorry to leave you hanging there yesterday, Smithsters. There's just a lot going on in this chapter!
So we return to #AdamSmith's many grievances with the very idea of the mercantile system. (IV.i.14–45) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
People worry too much about the supply of cash money. It’s easy to import more and you can always use barter instead, if things get really tight. Also, paper money is a thing! (IV.i.14–15) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
But everyone complains about a scarcity of money. That’s usually because they can’t get credit, or are big spenders. Or it can be caused by overtrading. It’s not about how many coins are around, but the ease of getting them. (IV.i.16) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
