Now apply this mentality to the run-away inflation, which is nothing more than opportunistic greedflation. (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

  1. Borrowing money does not create inflation.
  2. Fractional reserve banking is a great way to make money capital available to people who want to invest.
  3. Social Security, Medicare, and employer "health insurance" all deprive banks of savings, which deprives the people of earning interest from successful businesses.
  4. A fraction is a rational number, which are part of the Real numbers.
  5. If my bank tells the Federal Reserve "I have $100M in savings" and the Fed tells then, "okay, now you can loan out $200M!", that is not a fraction. That is an imaginary number.
  6. Imaginary reserve banking causes inflation.
  7. Only government has the power to legitimize imaginary reserve banking.
  8. Who are the shareholders of the Federal Reserve? "Twelve regional Federal Reserve Banks ... Nationally chartered commercial banks are required to hold stock in, and can elect some board members of, the Federal Reserve Bank of their region." But the Federal Reserve Board of Governors can overrule the regional banks. Two are presidential appointees, the rest are appointed by the President with Senate approval.

It's not a private bank, it's a government bank with private bank participation.

  1. Borrowing money that can't be paid for causes inflation because money is made to pay for the spending explicitly.
  2. Yes I know
  3. Yes, because Socialists believe that saving money is "hoarding"
  4. ok
  5. that's not an imaginary number because it's not multiplied by the square-root of negative one. The fraction in fractional reserve is the "fraction of the principle that must be kept instead of lended out." And yes, 1/1 is still a fraction
  6. Sure, using your definitions
  7. Yes
  8. Undoubtably several Fabian Socialists.

  1. Borrowing real money can never cause inflation.

  2. No, it is not an imaginary number, like i. i is a number subject to rigorous mathematics. The $200M is literally an imaginary number, as in, "made up out of nothing."

Don't 1 and 5 contradict one another? I mean it sounds like borrowers can create inflation, in our current f'ed up system.

Borrowing real money does not create inflation. It creates only a risk for the lender, who may not get his or her money back, against a possible future profit.

Creating fiat dollars for banks to lend out always creates inflation.
