so, you can see the graphs if you wish. As Galbraith remarks, higher interest rates, it is hoped, "will curb inflation." These comments of Galbraith illustrate why, although the raising of interest rates is the weapon against inflation chosen by those who profit by it, it is also clear that as a method it cannot finally work. John Turmel, a Canadian civil engineer and campaigner against usury, has in two long articles brought algebra, plumbing and poetry to bear on the task." JCT: This is the Big Lie of Economics based upon the assumption that inflation is more money chasing the same goods, Shift A, whereas I've proven that it is actually the same money chasign less goods after foreclosure, Shift B. Shift B inflation is unknown in economics but the following analysis explains why inflation in Argentina went from 1000% down to 36% after several provinces instituted local provincial LETS bond currencies. ANALYSIS: The problem of exponential growth of debt is created within the banking system and therefore a thorough understanding of the banking system is helpful. The money system is the only mechanical system which is under the jurisdiction of economists, not engineers. Improvements are taking place in all system areas except the financial system. It's time engineers turn their attention to this errant system from which come all the financial woes of the world. As an electrical engineer to have specialized in banking systems, I will endeavor to explain the inner workings of this mysterious system and its effects on users and debt. Though this might sound daunting, I think I can present an easy way of handling subjects such as: - plumbing modeling of flows of money with pipes - simple algebra - exponential functions - differential equations - Taylor Series - Laurent Series - Laplace transformations - control system circuitry ECONOMIC FALLACIES The two Big Double-thinks of Economics are that: 1) Banks lend their depositors' savings. 2) Interest rates fight inflation; Banks do not lend out their depositors' funds, they lend out brand new money. Interest does not fight inflation, it causes it. HOW BANKS CREATE MONEY The inner workings of the engineering design of the global "fractional reserve" banking system are mysterious to many but no matter how complex the actual process of creating money is, it can accurately be simplified to "HAVING THE MONEY PLATES," whether they be plates for changing metal to coins, plates for changing paper to notes, or plates inside a bank's computer changing electrical blips to bank deposits on which checks may be written. Since changes in the money supply are regularly reported, money must enter the supply from a source and leave through a sink. Our liquidity system has both a tap and a drain. Since the government borrows money itself, it does not have control of the tap. Who controls the tap and the drain of the money supply? The easiest way to model our system of financial liquidity is with plumbing. All banking systems have the same exterior connections to the economy. Fig. 2 is the interior plumbing of a piggy bank reservoir system which shows that a deposit is first made into the reservoir and a loan is then taken out of the reservoir which causes no increase in money supply. Conversely, when a loan is paid, it goes into the reservoir and there is no decrease in the money supply. A reservoir piggy bank system does not affect the money supply because there is no tap and no drain. Though the Bank of Canada operates a tap and adds a small amount of "high-powered" money to the money supply, Graham Towers, a former Governor of the Bank of Canada, pointed out that "The banks do not lend out the money of their depositors. Each and every time a bank makes a loan, new bank credit is created, new deposits, brand new money." So a chartered bank has a tap and is not the pure reservoir system like a piggy bank model! Fig. 3 is the interior plumbing of a chartered bank which shows that the loans do not come out of the savings reservoir but come out of the tap of new money. When a chartered bank makes a loan, the amount of money in circulation goes up. When a loan is repaid, it goes down. In the textbook Economics by Lipsey, Sparks, Steiner, it states "The banking system as a whole can create deposit money." Therefore, the banks all have their very own tap, their very own set of electronic money plates. The famous "reserve ratio" of a "fractional reserve system" sets the limit on the amount of new money the private banks may create. It simply means that a fraction of all deposits is sent to the Bank of Canada's reservoir and the bank is then allowed to turn on the tap to match the deposits remaining in their reservoir. Banks create most of the money in circulation. To go step by step through the fractional reserve banking system's plumbing with a 10% reserve ratio, let the Bank of Canada turn on its tap and put $100 of "high-powered" new money into circulation. Each time a loan is made, the borrower always eventually deposits it into the banking system. BoC Accts IOU's New$ Deposit old $100: 10 90 Loan out new $90 for $90 IOU 90 90 Deposit new $90: $9 BoC $90 Bank 9 81 0 Loan out new $81 for $81 IOU 81 81 Deposit new $81: $8 BoC $73 Bank 8 73 0 Loan out new $73 for $73 IOU 73 73 [...............................] Deposit new $10: $1.00 BoC $9.00 Bank 1 9 0 Loan out new $9.00 for $9.00 IOU 8.10 8.10 [............................... to infinity] -------- ------ ------- ------ $100 $900 $900 $0 Old New New Where the system started with only $100, after the expansion is over, the Bank of Canada is holding the original $100 as the banks' 10% reserves and the banks' reservoirs are holding the other $900 of the savers' new deposits. So, $900 newly created dollars were added to the system by the private fractional reserve banks for every $100 issued by the Bank of Canada. This limit is the inverse of the reserve ratio. A reserve ratio of 5% would generate total new money of 1/.05 = 20 times the initial high-powered Bank of Canada money. This is how an ordinary bank creates new money as new loans based not on the production possible but on past savings of money. Monetary reformers who think that money issued by the banks is fraudulent valueless money are incorrect. It is evident that all the new money issued is originally backed up by collateral or personal IOUs pledged at the time of the loan. Monetary reformers who think that banks use $100 to lend out $900 and collect interest on the whole $900 are incorrect. It is evident that most interest is paid to depositors and used for expenses at every stage. HOW BANKS DESTROY MONEY: Just as money is newly issued from the tap when a bank makes a loan, money is destroyed down the drain when a borrower makes a principal payment. Interest payments go back into the reservoir and not down the drain. When a large withdrawal is made or a large failure is written off the banks' books, the reverse reserve ratio process takes place. Since losses are covered from reserves upon which are based the loans, when their reserves go down, they have to call that amount in loans. It's quite an automatic doomsday mechanism. It was bankers calling in loans which precipitated the 1929 stock market crash. As people fail to meet their call and those loans are written off again reducing the bank reserves, more loans must again be automatically called in. The process gets worse and causes the banking system to fail. Any cabal of rich men can precipitate such a "credit crunch" by simply moving their savings to another country which forces the banks in the target country to start calling in loans. Such private power over the world's financial system is inappropriate. HOW BANKS CONCEAL THEIR CREATION OF MONEY: The injection of new money from their taps has been well hidden from the public view because the Bank Act insists that before any new money may be loaned into circulation, old money must be deposited into their reservoirs. It's just as if a casino were to insist on old chips being put into the safety deposit section before it would issue new chips. By merely matching new loans to deposits, this brilliant cover for the turning on of the tap misleads observers into falsely concluding that a chartered bank operates like a piggy bank. With a lawful reason to seek deposits before they can lend, there is no outward difference between chartered bank and a piggy bank. Yet, banks do not seek deposits to lend to other people. They seek them to lawfully turn on the tap of new money leaving depositors' old deposits in their accounts. It's a fascinatingly tricky mechanism but it's purpose is to foster the impression that borrowers are getting savers' deposits and that savers therefore deserve to get interest for lending borrowers their money. This may have surely been true when banking did operate like a piggy bank without the creation of new money but it certainly is not true now that banks operate more like a casino banks issuing new liquidity. The matching of loans to deposits successfully hides the fact that no one is giving up the current use of their money since it is new money being loaned out and therefore no one is being deprived of the use of their money. DOUBLE-THINK #1 Understanding now where bank loans come from, we can see the double-think that has been brainwashed into economic thinking. According to George Orwell in "1984," to double-think was having the ability to accept two contradictory points of view as both simultaneously true. I noted a perfect example of economic "double-think" in an article on the sci.econ Usenet newsgroup on Aug 24 1995 by wfhummel@netcom.com (William F. Hummel). In one paragraph, he said: "A bank loans money that it receives from other depositors..." This is exactly how everyone thinks a savings bank works, just like a piggy bank. No source of new money, no tap. Just a reservoir. In another paragraph, he said: "The money supply increases whenever a bank creates a new loan, and it decreases when the loanee pays off the loan." Both these statements cannot be true. Either borrowers are getting savers' deposits or they are getting new deposits. Though we know this is true that piggy banks lend out their depositors' savings, we also know that it is not true of the private chartered banks which are lending out new money which is expanding the money supply. This is one of the great double-thinks of economics. The more you've studied economics, the more you learn to believe that loans going out are new money at the same time as being old money. Try it. Ask any economist where the banks get the money from their loans, 99% will answer "from their depositors." Then ask if it isn't true that economics books say that banks are creating new money when they make loans and they'll agree right away without realizing it has just contradicted their previous belief that these new loan funds were depositors' old savings funds. REAL POWER OF CONTROL OF LOAN CREATION: The real power of banking is being able to refuse to turn on the loans tap for one businessman and foreclose while turning it on for a new loan to another businessman so he can buy out the first businessman at auction. CASINO BANK The major difference between a casino bank and a chartered bank is that the liquidity from a casino bank never suffers inflation while the liquidity from a chartered bank always suffers inflation. Since the hardware of a casino bank, chips of different colors and denominations, is functionally identical to the hardware of a chartered bank, computer credit pulses and coins or paper of different colors and denominations, inflation is not a hardware problem. It is a software problem. There is something wrong with the software program which regulates how money is put into and taken out of circulation. There is nothing wrong with the hardware. It is the operators of the taps who are improperly restricting the flows. To fully appreciate our present predicament, consider a station- master in a wartime situation who was ordered to ensure that an invading army did not capture the rail system in operating condition and burned all of the railroad tickets. Our failure to use our manpower, materials and tools because there are insufficient monetary tickets puts us in the same category as the invading army who failed to use the captured railway because they couldn't find any railway tickets. To get out of this silly predicament, public control of the money tap must be regained from the private banks. HOW "MORT-GAGE" INTEREST CREATES A DEATH-GAMBLE csurvive the mort-gage death-gamble. P < principle, I < Interest, i < Interest Rate, t < Time Production Costs (Principal) 100 P 1 Production Prices (Debt) 100+I P+I exp(it) Purchasable Value (Survivors) 100/(100+I) P/(P+I) 1/exp(it) Unpurchasable Value (Non-survivors) I/(100+I) I/(P+I) 1-1/exp(it) For Unemployment = 0, let: I=0 I=0 i=0, t=0 The odds of survival are always set by the interest rate(i). P/(P+I) survive, I/(P+I) do not. I/(P+I) has been dubbed the Miracle Equation because it explains how mort-gage works. INFLATION The equation for the minimum inflation (J) we must suffer is the same as the equation for unemployment (U) because the fraction of the people foreclosed on is the fraction of collateral confiscated. Though we are led to believe that inflation is caused by an increase in the money chasing the goods (Shift A), actually, it is caused by a decrease in the collateral backing up the money (Shift B) due to foreclosures. Though both inflations shifts feel the same, the graph shows inflation is not the inverse function of interest, it is the direct function exposing the Big Lie that interest fights inflation. (Fig. 4) Most people who have not studied economics, if asked whether interest fights or causes inflation, are quick to agree that a merchant must pass on increased interest costs in his prices and therefore it is evident that increased interest costs will result in increased prices. How they then accept politicians who tell them interest fights inflation is a measure of double-think too. DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS Where "B" is the original bank balance, "i" is the rate of interest and "t" is time, the differential equation for your bank account is: dB/dt = iB The "d" stands for "delta" or "change." So "dB" is the delta change in the Balance. So "dt" is the delta change in the time. So the rate of change of your bank balance over time equals your balance times the interest rate: iB. We can now examine the problem, not over one cycle with algebra, but over time with exponential functions. The solution to the differential equation dB/dt=ib is exp(it). Exp(it) means that your balance will exponentially double and double in time as a function of the interest rate. It is a crooked non-linear function. Consider that if two men are in a car accident and one owes the other $1. Fig. 5 shows that if there is no interest, the debt stays friendly and sociable like the two straight lines for one owing $1 and the other being owed $1. The two straight lines from at +$1 and -$1 represent the growth of their debt and credit. Zero growth. If there is interest, the balances start to grow with time and double in time T, then again in time T and again and again into the exponential curve exp(it). LAPLACE TRANSFORMATIONS Laplace Transformations are a branch of mathematics which allows engineers to manipulate complex system differential equations algebraically. Like magic, we transform tough real world functions from real numbers into a function of the Laplace variable "s" in the imaginary number dimension. There we do our computations algebraically and then reverse transform from the imaginary number dimension to the real world solution. Nothing in my engineering studies has ever awed me as being more powerful than Laplace Transforms and what can be done with them. TAYLOR SERIES We want to get the Laplace transform of a bank account which makes an original Balance B grow as B*exp(it). We expand the bank account function exp(it) into its Taylor Series: exp(it) = 1 + it + (1/2!)*(it)^2 + (1/3!)*(it)^3 + ... LAURENT SERIES Taking the Laplace Transform of each component of the Taylor Series produces the Laurent Series of the banking system: LT{exp(it)} = LT{1 + it + (1/2!)*(it)^2 + (1/3!)*(it)^3 + ...} LAURENT SERIES = 1/s + i/(s^2) + i^2/(s^3) + i^3/(s^4) + ... (1/s)*(1 + i/s + (i^2)/(s^2) + (i^3)/(s^3) + ...) |

Unfortunately, only the software solution can be implemented now.
Being generous in assuming that the rate of children perishing due to starvation on the planet will remain constant given the recent flurry of foreclosures on farm production, Fig. 11 shows the death curve. Since this software change in the computer's programming is quite instantaneous, if it were to be ordered at time t(now) and the bank`s computers immediately restricted to a pure service charge, all those industries that have recently died will be resurrected by an infusion of interest-free credit that will allow them to start rehiring as fast as they start writing new paychecks that need only be exchanged for work as collateral. This will generate the greatest industrial boom imaginable. The increase in production would cause the slope of the death curve to change downwards until the eventual eradication of starvation due to the maximization of our industrial capacity. Area X under the death curve represents the number who will perish even if we flip the economic engine to full power at time t(now) because we won't be able to get to them in time. Delaying the switch to full power till time t(soon) delays the fall of the curve causing the area under it to increase by a statistically measurable amount K. Fortunately, the curve must come down at time t(finally) when the hardware solution is finally implemented by cashless money transfers. The hardware solution nullifies the gage (gamble) portion of the mortgage death-gamble in making the communications so good as to guarantee sure gambles! Today entrepreneurs gamble on their wares being sold and the weakest are put out of production. Inflation through confiscation now occurs. This cannot occur in the electronic medium available in our near future. When communications become that fast, the slope of the death curve will change downward until the certain elimination of starvation, since food production will become a sure thing. The total area under the curve represents the maximum number of souls who will perish even if the software solution is never implemented. Though the curve must eventually come down by the electronic revolution, hastening the change of slope to time t(now) causes the area under the curve to decrease saving a statistically measurable slab of humanity A. For anyone with the power to hasten or delay the software solution, realize upon reading this that this is your Judgment Day in that there is now a slab out there with your name on it that is growing and whether it is a death(K) or a life(A) slab depends purely on your decision right now. DEATH RATE VS TIME PARALLELOGRAM It can easily be shown by the parallelogram theorem that the area in the K slab of the Keepers of the Interest Act is equal to the area covered during the delay. So, the K slab representing the number of souls to be lost due to the extra delay is equal to the number of souls who perish during the delay. Using the UNICEF estimate of the number of children who perished in the global village in 1981, 17,000,000, we can now accurately scale the death curve to get a good idea of the stakes we are gambling. The daily death rate of children in 1981 was therefore 46,000 per day. The area between the date of the Court of Appeal hearing on March 16, 1982, and the date of this hearing on June 21, 1982, represents the number of children who will perish as a direct result of the Court's failure to comprehend the seriousness of the matter. The number who will perish as a result of their 97 day delay is equal to the number who perished during the delay. 46,000 dead children per day times 97 days equals 4,462,000 children who will not live who should have. Nothing can be done to undo that fact though the magnitude of their error can be held to a minimum by the immediate solution. It was to stress the importance of hastening the software solution by even one day that I sought an Order of Mandamus that the Crown enforce the Criminal Code Sections against Gerald Bouey one day before this appeal was to be heard on the morrow in full court. On Mar 15, Justice Blair had wanted to put off his decision until the ruling on the morrow of the court in the Mar 16 hearing but the Crown objected. I explained that given the money system is now 90% electronic and vulnerable at its central computer to instantaneous correction, I likened our problem to that of the astronaut attempting to pull the plug on the killer computer in the movie "2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY." I stated "Here we sit in front of the killer computer's plug. I'm a scientist and I say pull the plug and our mortgage death- gamble will be over." It is simple to prove that since the Canadian banking system is international, if and when it changes to a pure service charge, the usury banking system will collapse globally. It was to try and save one day's worth of children, 46,000 souls, that I asked for the electronic solution one day earlier. Justice Blair decided that he would not extend time on the matter and dismissed the motion without costs. Nevertheless, anyone standing in the way of the quickest implementation of Global LETS has a K-slab growing from the moment they realize that LETS funding is the solution to the extinction going on around us. I hope this analysis has helped clear up many of the formerly misrepresented and misunderstood aspects of the usury banking system as well as explain why usury has been condemned throughout history as the greatest crime against humanity. It's the only thing standing between mankind and abundant salvation. |

Great post.
The banking system is a topic that we all must know like the back of our hand. It's the root of almost every problem facing the United States and the world. |
