First off, apologies, as the post is not strictly Bitcoin related. But, as the community has a good number of people who studied and understands the Austrian school of monetary theory (the only real economics), I hoped to throw it out here to learn something.

So, whenever I try to understand it (the events where George Soros brought down the GBP), all I see are usual leftist talking about, about greed, speculation blah blah!

That is why I am looking for a more objective explanation from people who can think straight, i.e. those who know about the Austrian school, some background on what exactly happened leading up to the event, and how did Soros capitalise on it.
