> If you have an argument why these IOUs should not be considered money, I would love to hear it. Otherwise, let’s conclude that non-bank corporations can sometimes create money out of thin air. It comes down to the definition of money.

These descriptions are way too complicated. If I have a check account with $0 balance and you have the same we have no money. If I write a check for $100 and you deposit it suddenly you have money - created from thin air.

It wants the extra dollar, just like any other company in the economy, its working to earn it. It also doesn't always get the dollar, or even the principle. Lots of people borrow the $10 and only repay $5.

It isn't going to go up every decade. Also Check markets in Japan and Europe which have been flat 30, 20 years.

I tried but local store really is much more expensive, like double or at least 50% - that is if they can even get it. I dont ever want to go there and browse, just buy some books. For me Amazon is sooo much easier and much cheaper as well,

There is so much publicity over Boeing problems. I'm wondering if 30-50 years ago they were more thorough or just it was more accepted to have accidents. Probably the latter. I'm just worried there is too much safety everywhere an

Yeah not bad but with 4k screen the cheapest I can find is $1700 which isn't cheap. And its 5.5 pounds.

I was looking at larger laptops to run Linux but they aren't cheap so MBP doesn't look such bad value. I want 15in screen with higher than 1080 resolution, 16GB memory, good battery life and there really isn't much less than

Good point I have a kobo forma which at 7.8 is a bigger than normal ereader that is good for technical books. Outside I use the kobo (and I use less often than I expected), but inside I have a cheap windows tablet which is faster, easier to
