Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
New York Sun editor Seth Lipsky today recalls a meeting with Austrian school economist Friedrich Hayek and his advocacy of competitive currencies, a position recently put into federal legislation by U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination. Paul’s Free Competition in Currency Act, Lipsky notes, would bear heavily on the absurd conviction in federal court of Liberty Dollar founder Bernard von NotHaus. Lipsky’s column is headlined “Ron Paul, Upping the Ante in His Campaign for Liberty, Hoists the Flag of Hayek” and you can find it at the New York Sun’s Internet site here:
