Might not be a bad idea to start with something like Basic Economics by Sowell or the broken window & price mechanism chapters of Economics in One Lesson, and maybe Layered Money. I agree with everything in The Bitcoin Standard & The Fiat Standard, but for normies who lack a proper economic foundation it seems like the conclusions that Saif reaches sometimes feel abrupt & like a bit of a leap for some people. It helps to have enough background to really understand the wide reaching impact of monetary & economic problems
