— Henry Hazlitt"All loans, in the eyes of honest borrowers, must eventually be repaid. All credit is debt.

They would seem considerably less inviting if they were habitually referred to by the second name instead of by the first."

When a bank makes a loan, it simply adds to the borrower's deposit account by the amount of the loan. It does not take this money from anyone else's deposit; it was not previously paid in to the bank by anyone. It's new money, created by the bank for the use of the borrower.
