    What Is Money? Money Is Debt
    
        'This is a staggering thought.  We are completely dependent on commercial banks.  Someone has to borrow every dollar in circulation, cash or credit.
    
        If the banks create ample synthetic money, we are prosperous; if not we starve.
    
        We are absolutely without a permanent money system. 
    
        When one gets a complete grasp of the picture, the tragic absurdity of our hopeless position is almost incredible, but there it is.' Quoted by Robert H Hemphill - Credit Manager of the Federal Reserve, Georgia.
