    I learned this in like 2015. I’ve educated myself little more since then. But I saved a little money to purchase a car. Went to my bank (local credit union) and requested to take 11k out . They told me no. I was freaking pissed. Eventually a manager came out and allowed me to take the money out , but I was dumbfounded they even told me no to begin with.

    When Soviet Union collapsed, my parents and all other Eastern European had all their money on savings account all their life savings. When hyperinflation hit the country, all of their accounts were frozen, no money was given out and everyone lost all of their life savings. It was given out when a lighter was now more expensive than a car. This is how all Eastern Europeans became broke in 1990s and until now many people keep their savings in 6 different banks, some offshore, avoiding loans and debt or keeping money under the mattress… Ironically everyone who wanted to be a millionaire, they all achieved that goal! They got me a Nintendo for $50 Million Rubles I remember.

      Most Asian third-world countries also experienced this in the 1990s. The bank closed, and they converted your dollars into worthless currency. You're better off putting money (dollars) under the mattress. I've never trusted banks and have always diversified my assets.

      People in general are just oblivious. I keep telling people that we are paying too much in taxes and that our lives would be a little better if we cut our government and lower taxes for landlords, builders and maintenance. That way there will be more competition and rent will cost less than 1000 or 2000 a month. But most people don't take this seriously or just don't want to talk about it at all.

      No they haven't because they've given no solution for Israel to protect itself in the future, and a ceasefire would only allow Hamas to reestablish themselves again and commit more attacks for which they've already vowed they'll do. You can argue all you want who's land was who's, but that doesn't give anyone the right to massacre innocent civilians 70 years later. You can say Israel has killed Palestinians too, but it's pretty easy to see that one side kills deliberately and target's civilians while the other sides deaths are casualties of war. Israel doesn't attack unless first attacked upon first. They give warning to Palestinians before they bomb. It's not their fault Hamas, the elected leadership group hides its weapons and HQ in heavily populated areas and then puts its citizens in front of them as human shields. By the way, one thing that wasn't brought up in this interview is that 70% of Palestinians polled supported the attack on Jews on October 7th. So if your going to suggest Palestinians are innocent peace loving people that poll proves otherwise.

    This whole free market argument is no longer totally true. It used to be that if a company made bad investments or business decisions there was an apparatus to resolve it. They would declare bankruptcy and once liquidated the prefered stockholders would get paid first, then the common stockholders would get anything that was left. Bond holders were left holding the bag. But now we have "to big to fail" and when they get things right they privatize the profits, and when they get things wrong, they socialize the losses. But I agree with the rest of your argument.

But on the other hand you’re not really wrong either, I grew up Christian and would always see people in church talk about “spreading the word of God” but never actually go help homeless people (you know, like Jesus himself has been said to have done). So I do think that if someone is “awake” and don’t do anything about the problem, then that honestly makes them worse than the people who are “asleep”.

    They don’t lend out demand deposits. They are allowed to create 90% of additional credit. Simply means: bank creates a new loan (asset) and new demand deposit (liability). They only need to keep a reserve ratio in line with federal requirements.
    And even then, they can borrow overnight funds from the repo market to meet reserve requirement.

      Fractional reserve banking system is a superior monetary system, especially compared to the gold standard, for one simple reason: credit is always going to be cheaper in fiat rather than gold.

      It's the worst monetary system, Fiat Currencies and Fractional Reserve have the worst track record compared to a multitude of actual monies being exchanged in a non-corporate banking market and continue to have such even after what, 3 or 4 THOUSAND YEARS OF MAKING THEM?!!
      Nah, the claim it's the best system is the damnedest of lies and it always will be.
      You just appealed to majority, henceforth, it's not valid, so quit being fallacious.
      Those who are for freedom of banking call fractional reserve a fraud, the reason is very simple.
      If you hand a loan out to person A, they use it and start paying you back, plus interest, the moment you make another loan and use person A's debt notes as the currency to loan say 10 times over, you make the purchasing power signal of each dollar sign TEN TIMES WEAKER BY FRACTIONATING IT DOWN TEN TIMES....
      "Money do not exist for you to store in your mattress, they exist to make investment accessible to everyone" no, that's empty commie rhetoric, governments wanted more control over stuff, that's why they adopted central banking and fractional reserve.
      Six core functions of monies are:
      1. Mediums of exchange based on commodities and assets
      2. Stores of value
      3. To make purchases and trades easier
      4. Holding reserves for future payments.
      5. A standard of deferred payments.
      6. RELIABLES UNIT OF ACCOUNTING
      Monies should exist to be mere mediums of exchange, but we don't have monies, we have CURRENCIES.

      The Bible is truth.
      To understand this you must do the inner work Jesus Christ taught. It all starts with forgiveness from the heart. Start by finding the grievances we all build up with our parents. They have generally raised fed loved us to some degree. Looking inside, realizing that they are people who make mistakes too, and genuinely forgiving them everything shows an important aspect of your soul to God. Genuinely mean absolute forgiveness inside your heart. This is key. To be forgiven we must forgive. This step teaches you why Jesus Christ is lord, and why you need to break down to him and ask for forgiveness. Afterwards read Genesis, Mathew, and one book of the Bible you chose yourself. These four steps have important spiritual significance and are like milestones within our souls.
      Please trust me.
      Genuinely open your heart up to God. It is all true.
