BAILOUT 5: PEOPLE, NOT BANKS, CREATE MONEY

OK, thought about it some more and have come to this conclusion: People, not banks, create money. The Fed site I quoted from below has it exactly backward, stating that "banks create money." That's what they want us to believe. However, that is false.

We know it's false because they go on to tell us that money is created through lending. Well, all right, but as I've pointed out, banks don't actually have the money to lend. The money is "created" by our "promise to pay" and our monthly installments, as in the car loan example I wrote about below. When the "loan" is paid in full, we have then created the amount of money we "borrowed," along with interest that wasn't created by any bank.

How to look at it

All money is created through our labor. In fact, labor is money. Banks don't do labor, people do. That's the ultimate reason why the bailout and the system it is trying to prop up are utter fraud. They want us to bail out banks because they tell us that it's banks that create money. That is completely false.

And that's why there is no need for a bailout. That's why there's no need, quite frankly, for banks. And that's why there's no need, ultimately, for money. Because our labor is money.
