Another way to describe what banks do: "They lend you money that doesn’t exist".

Swapping your $100,000 promise (mortgage) for their $100,000 promise (a credit balance) creates no debt on either side; it’s like swapping a $100 note for 5 $20 notes.

It's not turtles, it's promises, all the way down.
