Radikal dusunceleriyle ekonomide cigir yaratan Ingiliz iktisatci John Maynard Keynes'in olum yildonumu (21 Nisan 1946)
"Lenin, parayi yok etmenin, kapitalist sistemi ortadan kaldirmanin en iyi yontemi oldugunu soylemis. Surekli bir enflasyon artisinda, devletler, vatandaslarin varliklarinin onemli bir kismina gizlice/fark ettirmeden el koyabilir. Ustelik boyle el koyma, keyfîdir ve, bircoklari fakirlesirlerken, bazilari zenginlesir. Servetin bu keyfi duzenlemesi, sadece emniyeti degil, mevcut servet dagiliminin adil olusuna itimadi da sarsar. Haksizca, hatta arzu ve beklentilerinin otesinde, baslarina devlet kusu konanlar, enflasyonizmin proleter kadar fakirlestirdigi burjuvazinin nefret objesi: ‘vurguncular’ olurlar. Enflasyon devam edip de, paranin gercek degeri, aydan aya amansizca dalgalandiginda; en nihayet kapitalizmin temelini olusturan, alacakli ile borclunun arasindaki butun o daimi iliskiler, nerdeyse anlamsizlasacak denli kokunden bozulur. Ve, servet edinme yontemi, piyango ve kumara kadar duser." Barisin Ekonomik Sonuclari
"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some. The sight of this arbitrary rearrangement of riches strikes not only at security, but at confidence in the equity of the existing distribution of wealth. Those to whom the system brings windfalls, beyond their deserts and even beyond their expectations or desires, become 'profiteers,' who are the object of the hatred of the bourgeoisie, whom the inflationism has impoverished, not less than of the proletariat. As the inflation proceeds and the real value of the currency fluctuates wildly from month to month, all permanent relations between debtors and creditors, which form the ultimate foundation of capitalism, become so utterly disordered as to be almost meaningless; and the process of wealth-getting degenerates into a gamble and a lottery."
