the CB's can create money out of thin air, the consumers can not.

A while since you been in the US, huh? Consumers just accept a few cash advances they get flooded with in the mail everyday, toss it in the margin account and double that. Invest in Inuts and margin those profits. If anything ever goes south, declare bankruptcy. -g- True, not quite the same a CB, but pretty slick. -g-
