Government’s Eternal Hunger for a Free Lunch https://mises.org/mises-wire/governments-eternal-hunger-free-lunch by George Ford Smith > Through its coercive monopoly over money creation, government constantly engages in silent theft through inflation, all done in the name of “stimulating” the economy. Government, armed with fiat money, can bypass production and essentially claim the output of others.

Government Shutdown Shows Why We Need to Decentralize National Parks (2019) https://mises.org/mises-wire/government-shutdown-shows-why-we-need-decentralize-national-parks By Ryan McMaken > It’s considered normal for DC bureaucrats to decide if you can use an outhouse 2,500 miles Supposedly, there's a real push to return a lot of federal lands to the states, as well as privatizing a bunch of it. Let's hope. The western US is subjected to a crazy amount of artificial land scarcity.

The Complicated Legacy of Andrew Jackson’s Bank War https://mises.org/mises-wire/complicated-legacy-andrew-jacksons-bank-war By Tyler Turman & Mae Webster > Was Jackson’s victory over the Second Bank of the United States a triumph for liberty, or did it merely expand federal authority under the guise of constraining it? His legacy is complicated, but there is much we can learn from it.

Top Econ Post of Q3 Please help me select the top ~econ post of Q3. In the running will be the top post from each month, plus a few wildcards. Check out these great posts. Thanks to our many contributors and zappers! # Posts of the Month **July** [Pleb Economist #8: What game theory can teach us about Bitcoin and self-custody](https://stacker.news/items/1030571/r/Undisciplined) Some neat game theory from @SimpleStacker about how the existence of self-custody keeps custodians (more) honest, even if no one is choosing to self-custody. **August** [$83 Billion Wasted: Showing Up At The Airport 3 Hours Before Your Flight](https://stacker.news/items/1065775/r/Undisciplined) A great illustration of opportunity cost, shared by @Scoresby **September** [Stacker News Takes Over TABCONF 7](https://stacker.news/items/1220292/r/Undisciplined) This is @BlokchainB's announcement that he will be hosting a Stacker News booth at TabConf 7, where he'll be promoting the site and it's many territories. I'm deeply appreciative of what Blok's doing. # Wildcards I apologize for including so many options, but I really liked the variety of posts this month. [SN Research Proposal](https://stacker.news/items/1243188/r/Undisciplined) The introductory post for @SimpleStacker's research project about Stacker News, which we'll get to follow in real time in the territory. [Socialism In Plain Sight](https://stacker.news/items/1069912/r/Undisciplined) A nice discussion from @kepford of which aspects of the nominally capitalistic American economy are actually heavily socialized. [How People Experiences The Path Towards Hyperinflation](https://stacker.news/items/1049683/r/Undisciplined) A firsthand account of how the average person experiences the lead up to hyperinflation, from @didiplaywell's experience in Argentina. # End of Year Awards Update Thanks to @BlokchainB's very generous boost, we have rocketed into profitability for the year. That means I can start calculating the writing contest awards. As a reminder, this year's ~econ profits (up to around 600k) will be zapped out to the top posts of the month, quarter, and year. Profits to date: 816.3k - 450k = **366.3k** Zaps to each post of the month: 366.3k/3/12 = **10,175** Zaps to each post of the quarter: 366.3k/3/4 = **30,525** Zap to the top post of the year: 366.3k/3 = **122,100**
