Quote of the Day: 29 May 2021 #QotD

“Because in modern society it is through the limitation of our money incomes that we are made to feel the restrictions which our relative poverty still imposes upon us, many have come to hate money as the symbol of these restrictions.” -F. A. Hayek
“Because in modern society it is through the limitation of our money incomes that we are made to feel the restrictions which our relative poverty still imposes upon us, many have come to hate money as the symbol of these restrictions.” -F. A. Hayek
[It has become so entrenched in our society that we develop emotional attachments to it. To the point that we experience sensations similar to pain when required to part with cash. But it is still just a means of exchange. It is not the element imposing the restrictions in the first place.]
