Kia-ora
The banking system has no cost of production. Adding Zero's to an
account for a loan is effectively "free". Banks are then paid well for
this 'service". The myth that banking is simply on-lending savings was
exploded long ago.
Banks naturally favour "safe" investments for
lending such as land and existing companies, tilting the playing field
against new sustainable investment and artificially driving up the
prices of "safe" investments against others.
The incentive is
naturally to lend as much as possible, while using their financial clout
to skew the economy and regulation to favour banks, getting an ever
greater share of economic wealth.
Interest requires infinite economic growth. Not possible in a finite world.
The answer is public banking and the removal of interest.
Public Banking.
