Hi Christian

mathematically
backed out of (capitalized out of) any security. As far as fictitious
capital goes, for Marx there is no difference between state debt (ie
treasury bills and bonds), corporate paper and stock (in

Christian: Hmm, not really. The difference is that money backed by gold is
convertible on

following to say (and I quote):

Hi Ellen
Ellen: Money-printing can't be privatized, but it can be quasi-privatized,
relegated to semi-autonomous and undemocratic central banks, like the

the Bundesbank, or the European Central Bank. Removing control over money
from normal avenues of democratic accountability
