*'''Redirect/merge''' - Looks real to me. Its certainly a Fringe topic within economics, and probably shouldn't be covered in any depth in an article like [[Fractional reserve banking]], but we do have an article about Fisher's proposals, such as [[Full-reserve banking]] and [[Chicago plan]]. This article could redirect to Fisher, or better, to [[Chicago plan]]. To me it seems that most of the citations to this paper, and there are a lot, couches the paper in a discussion of Fisher's ideas and isn't really ''about'' the paper. I don't think the paper passes NBOOK, and we don't usually have articles about every academic manuscript that has a dozen or two citations. I could maybe be convinced that the subject is suitable for an encyclopedia, I think better would be some energy put into those other articles as merge destinations.

*'''Merge''' to [[Chicago plan]] where it is already briefly mentioned as a followup proposal. If the editors of the [[Journal of Law and Economics]] did not think it is a hoax, who am I to argue.

During the winter it was widely circulated, and in March 1939 it was sent to the president ...").
