📕 The Works and Days, Hesiod. Rothbard called him the first economist for his discussion of scarcity and description of the “good war” that is work.

📕 Republic and Laws, Plato. Not so much for the economic advice, but so you realize Plato is one of the original shitcoiners pushing a fiat token, and how much of the “other side” is influenced by his thought.

📕 Politics, Aristotle. An advanced economics treatise? Not really, but it helps you realize the foundational economic system was, still is, and will always be the household. Also, I love the insight that men are greedy because they forget the difference between money and wealth.

📕 De Moneta, Nicole Oresme. Control of the mint by princes is immoral.

📕 The Way to Wealth, Ben Franklin. Delightful aphorisms about the value of work and HODLing.

📕 A History of Money and Banking in the United States, Rothbard. That moment when you realize the Washington Administration in the 1790s was fighting about today's events. 😬

📕 The Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith. What we erroneously call “capitalism” today is a joke compared to this.

📕 The Road to Serfdom, Friedrich Hayek. He's an honorary Bitcoiner for both predicting the current crisis and its only solution.

📕 Human Action, Mises. Practically a foundational text for us.
