[lbo-talk] more on the psychology of money

[Doug Henwood]

More from the Grundrisse, p. 232: "But when one considers the anxiety  
involved in the doctrine of money in particular, and the feverish  
fear with which, in practice, the inflow and outflow of gold and  
silver are watched in times of crisis, then it is evident that the  
aspect of money which the followers of the Monetary and Mercantilist  
System conceived in an artless one-sidedness is still to be taken  
seriously, not only in the mind, but as a real economic category."
