Related Policy Proposals
Many proponents of the Austrian School business cycle theory advocate free banking or full reserve banking with a monetary system based on a non-government commodity-money standard. If the central bank-fiat money system is maintained, they suggest heavy regulation of the banking system, enforcing a policy of full reserves on all deposit-taking institutions, or at least higher reserve requirements on all banks. Proponents of the theory generally oppose deregulation of the financial system without the prior abolition of central banks and the removal of deposit insurance.

“A parent who from his own childhood experience is convinced of the value of fairy tales will have no difficulty in answering his child’s questions; but an adult who thinks these tales are only a bunch of lies had better not try telling them; he won’t be able to related them in a way which would enrich the child’s life.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
“It is always the best policy to speak the truth, unless of course you are an exceptionally good liar.”
—Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)
“One theme links together these new proposals for family policy—the idea that the family is exceedingly durable. Changes in structure and function and individual roles are not to be confused with the collapse of the family. Families remain more important in the lives of children than other institutions. Family ties are stronger and more vital than many of us imagine in the perennial atmosphere of crisis surrounding the subject.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
