ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY
"In order to function, markets need a basis, and although they cannot produce it by themselves, they can certainly destroy it.
Trust is such a basis. ...Morality and trust permeate a society from below."
Stefan Klein

"For all the gold and silver stolen [from the Indians of the Americas] and shipped to Spain did not make the Spanish people richer. It gave their kings an edge in the balance of power for a time, a chance to hire more mercenary soldiers for their wars. They ended up losing those wars anyway, and all that was left was a deadly inflation, a starving population, the rich richer, the poor poorer, and a ruined peasant class."
