We could eliminate 15% of the US national debt right there.

Then stupid people "save" 10% of it. Now there is only 900000 ounces in the economy


What? They hoard it in money bins like Scrooge McDuck?

That's the only way 'savings' are 'removed' from the economy.

Most people will deposit their savings in the bank or invest in stocks. Deposits are loaned out.

Please careful how you use quotes. I never said "Then stupid people "save" 10% of it. Now there is only 900000 ounces in the economy." Misc said that, I was replying to it.

That's a known bug in the PatNet quoting system, I am afraid. I changed it manually just now.
