Signs of the Times - September 2017 - 22
AT LARGE
A CAPITAL IDEA
In his book War and Gold, Cambridge
University Ph.D. Kwasi Kwarteng noted
that Spain did not use its new (at that
time) wealth to build infrastructure
or increase its national production
potential, but instead the monies were
used for empirical advancements
that, historians say, did not go well.
Small businesses can twin this perilous account, because a temporary
abundance of profit dollars can create
an economic microcosm leading to
loose spending and a small-scale economic crisis. Again, it's the choice of
using profits to buy an Electra Glide
or establishing production potential.
The effects of Spain's lost wealth
magnified. Kwarteng says the biggest
economic effect was inflation. Spanish
prices increased by 300% in the first
quarter of the 17th century, an unheardof amount in previous centuries.
Further, Spain borrowed money
from private bankers (early venture
capitalists?) and soon had a debt
mountain that matched its total
wealth. Kwarteng wrote, "The [newworld-gained] wealth was imaginary
because its effects on the Spanish
Monarchy were unexpected and
would lead, in the long run, to bankruptcy and a diminution in the power
of Spain in world affairs."
This year, CNN Money, quoting
BankruptcyData.com, said in June
that more than 300 retailers (read:
sign buyers) had filed for bankruptcy
so far this year, which is up 31% from
last year. The list includes Payless
Shoes, Gander Mountain, RadioShack
( for a second time), HHGregg and
The Limited.
