Economy

Why increasing the supply of commodity money like gold doesn't produce booms and busts. I'm not sure this analysis is complete. When a new gold mine is discovered, people tend to leave their current jobs to find gold, producing a local boom. When the gold runs out, there's a bust. I guess this is true of every natural resource. It has nothing to do with the resource being money.
