"Excuse me everyone for tagging you.  I am reaching out to many as possible in re: to "wildfires in California.
The recent "wildfires" in Paradise, California 1000's of people died and 30,000 + homes destroyed. What most people don't know the "wildfires" are man-made. I will provide clips, links of evidence, what we're up against and a solution. The mainstream media has been downplaying...
...on the "wildfires" to keep us all ignorant for not knowing the truth.  This is a 4  part thread."

J'ai lu "Essai sur la nature du commerce en général" de Cantillon (1755), voici un #thread sur des trucs que j'ai appris / que j'ai trouvés intéressants / des extraits choisis. 1/
2/ Bien qu'"Essai" ait été probablement rédigé vers 1730, il n'a été publié qu'en 1755 suite à une forte censure en #France, il a été diffusé sous la forme d'un manuscrit inédit entre son achèvement et sa publication. Il est considéré comme le 1er traité complet sur l'#économie
3/ Le type de monnaie utilisé n'est pas décrété mais provient de l'usage. L'or et l'argent sont de facto les meilleures solutions (en 1730. Et en 2018? quid des #cryptomonnaies ?)
