ROFL!! fractional reserve banking. I remember this from my econ classes.

By the way there was recently a documentary made about this called "The Money Masters".   It also answers the four questions that the show you referenced asks.  Tongue


Here is a link to the program outline: http://www.scribd.com/doc/13754/The-Money-Changers

The Wiki for the show: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Money_Masters
