#Iran pledges Syria reconstruction as Iranians plunge into poverty irannewswire.org/iran-pledges-s…
With the current inflation in #Iran which the regime puts at 46.5% for food and beverages, 54.9% for transportation, and 52.6% for home appliances, ordinary Iranians have a hard time affording food and other basic goods.
The price of meat has doubled since last year and many people say they have not been able to buy meat for months.

This is while the government has not raised wages to include Iran’s soaring inflation.

U.S. Federal Reserve to teachers and students (there will be a quiz!): “Traditionally, currency is produced by a nation's government.“
files.stlouisfed.org/research/publi…
Education or propaganda? At the very least it is quite incomplete. The following thread fills in some of the gaps:
2/ Many banks besides central banks issued bank notes that circulated as currency. See work of @lawrencehwhite1 & @GeorgeSelgin
• Charted Bank of India, Australia, and China, 1954
• Mechanic’s Bank, U.S.,1856
• North of Scotland bank, 1945
• Ipswich bank in England,1820s
3/ In the industrial revolution, factories had to attract workers with frequent pay that could be spent at bargain shops. The Royal Mint was not producing low-denomination coins, so factories minted their own. Was not the only time or place for private coins. ht @GeorgeSelgin
