A lot of us were taken aback by the concept of fractional banking and decided to pick up some books from the Mises Bookstore on the subject.<\/p><p>We learnt about the imputation of value stemming from the consumer and also the nature of capital from the Austrian perspective. We also learnt about excess liquidity and malinvestment caused by central banking, which is the lead cause of business cycles. For many of the economics students, it was a fresh new perspective on the subject, and the well-explained arguments left more than just a little doubt in our minds about what we are taught at university.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df0e0e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"df0e0e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Patrick-and-Simrin.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-14792\" alt=\"Two smiling young adults with name badges sit at a classroom table during what appears to be a professional event or workshop.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Patrick-and-Simrin.png 800w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Patrick-and-Simrin-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Patrick-and-Simrin-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Patrick-and-Simrin-500x250.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Simrin and Patrick in class<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-693ed73 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"693ed73\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Judge Andrew Napolitano\u2019s course on <em>The Constitution and the Free Market <\/em>was an entire semester of US Constitutional Law interpretation condensed into an eight-hour course. Having a judge of Napolitano\u2019s calibre run through the US Constitution line by line was both extremely enlightening and terrifying. As he ran through some of the gross misinterpretations of the US Constitution of the previous 250 years, the unchecked march of the central government was made blatantly clear. Citing the unrelenting expansion of Presidential and Congressional powers by the Supreme Court, Napolitano ended by stating that by the end of our lifetimes, we may well see the internal combustion of the US central government and the return to a system of separately-governed states.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58fba8d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"58fba8d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mises-U-Leonard-Read.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-14793\" alt=\"Four smiling young adults posing with a bronze bust sculpture in an indoor institutional setting\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mises-U-Leonard-Read.png 800w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mises-U-Leonard-Read-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mises-U-Leonard-Read-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/mannkal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mises-U-Leonard-Read-500x250.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Josephine, Simrin and fellow Mises University students with Leonard E.
