“As always in matters of human action, theoretical debate cannot substitute for, or overrule, the outcomes emerging from human action. Engineers, economists, and politicians may have strong opinions about what is a useful or wasteful monetary system, but the only actual answer that matters is the one that humans offer with their actions, in the goods they consume and produce in response to the market reality offered by these technologies. Intellectual arguments are very cheap, but actions are very costly.”
