No one seems to have pointed out that the original example given is actually wrong. (I've stumbled on this looking for something else, but had to comment.) The second balance sheet should still show $1000 as both the total assets and liabilities. The "deposit creation multiplier" idea referred to is the theoretical maximum aggregate balance sheet of the banking sector, if there is more than one bank and they all lend to each other and only each other. Its double counting, but that's allowed in the calculation of M4 money supply, but isn't allowed on any particular bank balance sheet (which is why the example is so wrong).
sylvester roepstorff on 23 Oct 09Denne side indeholder også en lang liste over grupper med alternativ politisk praksis. "One idea is to go try out challenge.theyesmen.org, where you can look at ideas for actions, come up with new ones, and join up with other troublemakers. You can also sign up on our list, and we'll let you know when we're planning something. "
rune66 on 24 Oct 09Hey - Fedt. Det ser spændende ud, og inspirerende, hvordan andre går til "opgaven", f.eks. 38 degrees. Også godt til at hjælpe med at definere os selv. F.eks. kalder 38 degrees på medlemsskab, hvor jeg mere ser det uformelle selvorganiserende (både selvdannende og selvopløsende) netværk som målet.
