Unemployment develops . . . because people want the moon; -- men cannot
be employed when the object of desire (i.e. money) is something which
cannot be produced and the demand for which cannot be readily choked off.
There is no remedy but to persuade the public that green cheese is
practically the same thing and to have a green cheese factory
(i.e. a central bank) under public control.
