1. Five random, but important, thoughts about money and banking: 1) Money and Banking Myth #1 ... 2) Money reformers are, for the most part, feckless ... 3) The “creation of money out of nothing” through loans ... 4) The Private Federal Reserve System charges the government interest on the money it lends to the government ... 5) The present money system is a disgrace. / more at: http://www.primeronmoney.com/5randomthoughts.html
   
2. The United States is acting like a 5th world country that does not understand its sovereign rights to create its national currency without help from an outside agency. The United States pays over $400 Billion / year in interest payments on the national debt because of this lack of understanding. If the United States, the home of the world's biggest and most stable economy, does not have the sovereign right to create whatever money it needs -- WHO DOES?

96. Interest on the national debt is over $400 Billion DOLLARS / YEAR. That expense can be wiped out instantly by creating that money and paying off that debt. If the United States does not have the sovereign right to create money, WHO DOES? The present value of $400 Billion at 4% interest is $10 Trillion Dollars. ($400,000,000,000 x 25 = $10,000,000,000,000). We are letting $10 Trillion slip through our hands every day. That needless expense is about $1 billion / day. It adds up.

112. Garbage In -- Garbage out / the danger of bad theories that look good. A financial firm borrows billions of dollars to make big bets on esoteric securities. Markets turn and the bets go sour. Overnight, the firm loses most of its money, and Wall Street suddenly shuns it.

122. An economy without money where everyone will cooperate for the common good? Impossible you say? Contrary to human nature? Probably. But I think it might be possible to construct such a system on a very small scale and try to nourish it to a self-sufficient size. Buckminster Fuller thought it was way more than possible. He thought 2 to 3% of our workaholics could make everything the rest of need if the government would provide those people with free tools and materials. He convinced me when I heard him speak in the 70s at The University of California at Santa Barbara. do you have any ideas how to get started? / http://www.primeronmoney.com/newamericandream.html

124. The One Root Cause Of The Mortgage Market Meltdown -- Tuesday, September 23, 2008. It is quite clear that our current (September, 2008) mortgage market problems are directly traceable to the ONE simple fact that "existing lending rules allow banks to negligently sell off shaky house loans".Unless those lending rules are changed, no government action will correct the problem. This is from our Silver Bullet Plan.

132. Paulson speaks. "If we have learned anything throughout this year, we have learned that this financial crisis is unpredictable and difficult to counteract." Two questions: (1) In plain English, does that mean "I do not have a clue what is happening?" (mrc) (2) Who is the "we" he is talking about? (mrc)

134. The Central Bank of the Philippines buys back loans from banks to allow the banks to sell more loans. From a Google search for "Bangko Sentral" ---
     "The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is the central bank of the Republic of the Philippines. It was established on 3 July 1993 pursuant to the provisions ..."
     What nonsense. It turns the banks into sales agents for the Central Bank and, of course, makes the small banks less interested in the success of the loans. They will be sorry. In my opinion, someone sold them a bill of goods and they do not know how bank lending works. Banks create money out of thin air when they lend.(mrc)

141. WARNING --This is, more or less, a 28-page, opinionated, off-the-wall, rant against the Fed. However, It is worth reading for a number of reasons. Mostly to see how misguided some people are. / http://www.primeronmoney.com/rantagainstthefed.html
142. I want it to be understood that I am herewith considering only what Ms. Brown has written in her article which is reproduced here. I am in no way criticizing her as a person. She normally is very logical and a wonderful writer. I respect her enormously.

144. More from Reich
     http://www.primeronmoney.com/recessionhowtostopone.html
     
145. The written law regarding "reserve requirement ratios". When a bank must keep "10 percent in reserves" -- that means they can lend out 10 times as much money as it has in "capital" and in its "transaction accounts" combined. The article defines "transaction accounts". Don't believe anything that contradicts this law. Hardly anyone -- even well educated economists understand this law or its ramifications.
