Some interest is necessary to keep up with inflation. The rest is just profiteering off of what should be a public utility. Old timers were smart enough to ban usury, because it moved wealth from the productive to unproductive sectors. There's literally no reason not to just have government run banks, and use those profits to slash taxes on the middle and lower classes.

Technically a savings account is a high-liquidity "loan" to the bank, which it is why it is interest bearing.

you create the money through a state bank and lend it without interest in the case of public infrastructure (schools, hospitals, police stations, roads, etc). You have inflated the currency but the infrastructure everyone can use makes up for it.
In the case of private ventures, there is no reason why it should be funded through a bank which charges interest. The bank is getting fatter and more powerful with time, with little risk because the economy depends so much on it it is never allowed to collapse. They also have monopoly on money creation. Give everyone else this ability then you can talk about interest being a hedge against risk involved.
These private enterprises could fund themselves through investors which own a share in the company and earn dividends only. This would encourage people to save money and invest in private startups, because it would the only way to get funding. Today during 'economic booms' its so easy to get loans, if you dont pay you declare bankrupcy. The bank gets some of your wealth but maybe not enough to recoup losses. The new money which entered in circulations through the chain of loans still exists however, and everyone else pays for it with inflation, like a hidden tax on top of all taxes, which would not be as absurdly high, maybe even to the point they wouldnt even be necessary, were it not for interest on money. The state can fund itself through the revenues of public enterprise, it doesnt really need taxes save for exports/imports and only if such income is strictly watched by the public eye.

Interest is the price of money. The problem is not interest anymore than charging rent for lending anything else.

inflation would still exist without interest on money, but if production of good and services can keep up with the money entering the system, prices remain stable enough you dont notice it much.
You can have something similar with interest applied on the loans, but you are creating and feeding a class of people which pile money on money adding no real value to your society but extracting from everyone else labour. Where you could have the same functioning economy, and even better, without the need to feed this class of people. They ARE a liability and they are working against YOU.
The amount of loan-capital in relation to productive (industrial, resource gathering, infrastructure, energy, etc) capital in existance is insane.

What most idiots here don't understand is that there's a natural interest rate that forms in the market.

Lets say I have $100 and only need $80, I'll think where can I invest that extra $20 that I don't need right now.

On the other hand someone has $100 but needs $120 he will be looking where he can get the extra $20 he needs.

And like in any market where the supply and demand meet you have the price, in this case the price is the interest rate.

NO, you can grow your economy way better by not charging interest. This way you allow business that is essential to your country to flourish and become top priority, whereas business dealing with finances and speculation would become riskier. You make human resources (productive people) concentrate on whats actually important. Thats why your country (USA) is going down the shitter, you sent all your factories overseas and brought in cheap third world scum to occupate your remaining low level jobs, while the rest of the country focuses on meaningless services and speculation. Your infrastructure is decaying and so is the rest of your country. It only takes one thing to set the wheel of a new working economy in motion, abolish interest on money.

i know this must seem like magic thinking to you burgers, so used to your flawed ways. You bring money into existence through public funding of projects everyone can enjoy later.
There is two ways of approaching this. The state lends the money and charges no interest, the public 'enterprise' (lets call it like this be it a school or a hospital or whatever) may charge a little for their services to repay this debt. Once the debt is paid, the state has funds to lend to other project, without adding new money to the supply.
The public enterprise can then fund itself with what it charges (it would be semi-private).
The other way is the state keeps funding it and ask nothing back. This would make it 100% public.
Money has entered circulation, but new services free (or with little) charge can now be enjoyed by you and your family. Translate these concepts to the entire economy (most important in production) and you wont ever notice inflation due to the increase of cheap and free products and services.
This is a sort of planned economy and your country is brainwashed against it, because you always studied such in soviet/socialist countries post war, which never abolished interest on money.

the state doesnt just lend to anyone, only the most vital and prioritary projects. It isnt tied in few projects because there are many things to be done to improve a country infrastructure. That means unemployment goes way down too. The fact it doesnt ask for the money back, or if it does, it does so without interest is the key aspect.

well if you give free access to everyone to give loans, they will expect to earn something by doing so. This is not how people should get funding. Want a new TV and cant pay for it? Too bad, get a job. Need funds for starting your business? raise through standard methods, dont ask the bank for a loan. We've seen with crypto how easy is to raise funds these days.
Wanna make money with money? Invest in productive business should be your option. Not lending money and charging interest. If you lend someone money and he spent it in hookers and blow, you're not adding value. If you lend money to business and earn dividends (similar to interest) you are adding value, cause that business is either providing a service or producing, adding value.

So in hypothetical state the government prints a whole lot of money (unless they magically have some other source of getting all the money). They hand out the money to projects that may or may not be successful or take time to complete. They lend the money interest free even though it could take the projects 50 years to pay back the loans. So in order to finance other projects while the old projects are being paid back the government prints more money to fund those countries.

The people responsible for sustaining our modern world everyday, are not rewarded even a fraction of what the finance speculators earn, its is ridiculous, but i know which band you're on so of course you will never agree with me.
In the end all we have is theory, and historic examples are subject to way too many variables to draw permanent conclusions

wrong, it would hand out the money only to those that prove they are apt enough to complete them. Add to it the public eye on what these funds are being spent on, and there is extra pressure to bring them about.
Whatever it takes to pay back the loans, the state would be getting such money from multiple projects, enough to fund other ones.
If it needs to print more, it prints more, whats the problem? You will see your country explode in infrastructure, lot of jobs, cheaper everything due to no taxes and an actual national industry. You need to get rid of leeches though for this to work, no welfare, etc.
Argentina is not a good example because of massive welfare system and massive debt with interest.

kys you piece of shit. You know how many things were considered money before your precious gold? Nobody can claim whats the price of money, that is agreed upon by the people that agreed to used such system.
If we dont agree to give value to gold anymore, guess what, your 'money' is now worth shit. Many things will lead to this happening.
You dont even see the flaws in a gold backed economy, that allows interest on money, with a limited supply of the basis of its currency.

I'm coming around to your point, but I think you're arguing it poorly. There's a huge difference between lending as a means to add value(as most corporations are involved in) and consumer lending. Unfortunately consumer lending has gotten out of control. Interest itself isn't the problem, it's bad behavior.

You argued here >>10970247

its more than the consumer lending, its basing your entire economy on debt and interest, which establishes a sort of plutocracy. You can argue these people are smart and deserve such position, i argue they have not earned it honestly, and they are not the most apt for ruling because they have placed so much importance to finance and getting richer that they have ignored their societies degrading in the process. Its like they live in a bubble where all that matters is profit, yet reality is they know well the consequences of their acts, they just dont care. So if not caring is made philosophy, then a way of life, what kind of society will you inherit.
The consumer problem IS solved abolishing interest. If people are stupid and want what they cant afford, only harsh measures can make them see reality. Then they'll realize they need to cooperate and everyone benefits, and if they put their share of work to upgrading their society, they can easily afford the TV and more. But its easier to rely on loans, welfare and get wasted on booze right?

>> No.10970621

Interest exists because lending out money comes with risk, aka a non zero chance of not getting it (all) back. Without interest lending out money would be negative ev and thus stupid to do (except if you don't mind losing money, for example helping out a friend).

I think that's what you're missing in your argument. When you say "abolish interest" you really mean "abolish consumer lending", which are inherently two very different things. Abolishing interest in itself suggests that you can still borrow money (for either a good or bad reason) with no premium attached to it. You might want to refine/clarify that thought.

crypto is a bit like these. Imagine if your shitcoins were national and you were speculating on them, to the point 90% of the country was trading shitcoins. We know in trading more people lose money than win. Congrats 10% of your country is way richer now, but at what price? The rest is now poorer, they wont buy your company products cause no money. What if this 10% spent their profits on drugs, expensive cars, mansions, losts of imported exotic stuff. Are they benefiting your country?
Now if this 10% invested in more factores, more power lines, etc. Thats good, but does your society work that way? I dont think so..

Yes private consumer lending would not be encouraged.
Im mostly talking about mass scale lending, you know the big bucks, with interest attached to it. Im talking about the giant debt issue.
What i mean with abolishing interest, is doing away with the act of making a profit through lending someone your money. Since you say whats the incentive then, or that nobody would lend without profit, you are right in a way. There is risk involved. So instead of people taking these risks personally, you socialize them. Not with taxes, but in the process of money creation. The state takes the risk when funding, knowledgeable people give their input on which projects make sense and wont fail. Its not completely centrally planned. Understand?

>> No.10970779

and by this i dont mean a person can just go to the state bank and get a loan for their TV with no interest. The demand for products MUST be natural. If you allow this, the demand grows disproportionally to the capacity of production to satisfy such demand.
So you need a very capable population working good jobs and earning well to reach a natural demand of products, that consumer lending is currently artificially creating. Thats what you want.

I get what you're trying to say, but I still have a problem with the approach. How many car dealerships offer "0% lending", but you know on the backend they are building that interest into the cost of the vehicle. I'm not sure that abolishing interest in itself is enough to discourage lending in general. I remember not too many years ago under Obama when there were talks about trying a negative interest rate to promote economic spending. Thank god we never got that bad. As far as state decisions, I don't know if you're actually in the US or not, but we have a pretty clean track record of fiscal irresponsibility and even borrowing from unrelated accounts (in every level of government) to cover for overspending in another. We could take the approach of getting input from multiple sources and investing properly, but that will never happen. It should happen today even though we have a borrowed economy. They aren't going to smarten up if we just take it all away. The main problem is that we have too big of a federal government that thinks the same problems that apply to California are shared by Maine. Europe doesn't have this problem nearly as much because the EU doesn't rule over their constituent countries as much as the US does over individual states. It's a false equivalency. Consumer lending aside, we do have a huge management problem where everyone wants something for nothing and the federal government is a reflection of that.

Having said that, you are receiving flak because your wording says that we should lend money for nothing, not that you are talking about the problems with unlimited deficit spending. You need to be clearer on that.

yes english is not my main language so im trying my best. Im not against lending per se, im against profiting off it regardless of what the money is being used for. For example, say a cocaine dealer gets a private loan, he will be able to repay it easily. The company, bank or whatever lending the money IS profiting off his deals. Is it improving your country? Just by facilitating credit? What is it then spending his profits in? Is it benefiting your country?
As i said, if you wanted to lend and profit from it, business that produces real value should be your only option. You are lending money, and you get to choose where it goes.
