HEAVYWEAGHT DEBATE CHALLENGE!

.

The 
MINNESOTA ECONOMIC POLICY INSTITUTE

challenges

The Banking Lobbyists at the MN State Capital

to 

A Debate

At issue:
1. Do banks create money?
2. Is it possible for the United States to get out of debt, under a debt money system?
3. Can we borrow ourselves to prosperity?
4. Can you borrow so much that the interest due exceeds your ability to pay?

UPDATE - 3/20/09:
The lobbyists showed, tried to start an argument before the meeting - about the invitation.  No joke.  They sat and talked throughout the presentation, typed on their Blackberry, rolled their eyes and were generally rude.  Then they got up and left.  They would not speak.  They would not answer any questions.
