hi, i’m doing work on the english g1 currency website.  
i’m not fully clear on the 4 economic freedoms stated in RTM… would appreciate if someone could expand on the 2nd one… what does the freedom to access resources imply? the other 3 are rather self explanatory.

```
The freedom of choice of one’s monetary system
The freedom to access resources
The freedom to evaluate and produce any economic value
The freedom to exchange and determine prices

```

thanks

Others may correct me but I think this is Freedom to use ressources available in your environment.

If someone would corner/monopolize a resource, like a water from a well or an oasis in the desert.  
But, I do not know how the prevention can be achieved.

At the end of the RTM, you have the appendice 1 where the author add some comments on the four freedoms.

What I remember is that the money is also a resource…

ok, thanks for this. good to know the RTM goes through these points in more detail… i read over the first points, and get a sense it refers to what you mention, that the resource in this case refers to money or currency… it’s not spelt out as that, but i can’t see what else he would be referring to.

if find the writing in RTM very hard to comprehend. i assume it’s not just from the english translation, but the way the material is expressed.
