I get more tangible assets if I use the money first. Once the dollars have been introduced into the economy the value of all dollars has been reduced, they buy less tangible property than before the introduction of the new money.

Are you really not understanding, or are you just screwing around?
So you have not shown where the bank lends more money than it has in deposits?
