In a world where money seems to rule everything, it's easy to forget that it's just a human invention. Money is a social construct, and like all social constructs, it can be changed. In his new book, "In The Pursuit Of Happiness: The Theory Of Natural Money", author John Smith argues that we need to rethink our entire monetary system. He proposes a new form of currency, called "natural money", that he believes is more stable, sustainable, and just than the fiat currency that we use today.

Fiat currency is money that is created by governments or banks. It is not backed by anything of intrinsic value, such as gold or silver. The value of fiat currency is based solely on the faith that people have in the government or bank that issued it. This faith can be fragile, and it can be easily shaken by events such as wars, political instability, or economic crises.

Natural money, on the other hand, is money that is backed by something of intrinsic value. This could be a physical commodity, such as gold or silver, or it could be a service, such as labor or energy. The value of natural money is not based on faith; it is based on the real value of the thing that backs it.

Smith argues that natural money is superior to fiat currency in several ways. First, it is more stable. The value of natural money is not subject to the same fluctuations as the value of fiat currency. This is because the value of natural money is based on something real, not on faith. Second, natural money is more sustainable. Fiat currency can be created out of thin air, but natural money must be produced through real economic activity. This makes natural money more sustainable in the long run.

Finally, Smith argues that natural money is more just. Fiat currency tends to benefit the wealthy and powerful, while natural money benefits everyone equally. This is because the value of natural money is based on real economic activity, not on speculation or manipulation. Smith believes that natural money can help to create a more just and equitable society.

The idea of natural money is not new. In fact, it has been around for centuries. However, Smith's book is the first to develop a comprehensive theory of natural money. This theory provides a blueprint for how we can transition from our current fiat currency system to a natural money system. Smith's book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the future of money.
