It's a different kind of money, because in a case debt is created and in the other no (even if we use the fiction that it is):

I'm going to read these too. I think nakedcapitalism is such a great blog.
I agree one is created as debt which will be destroyed ultimately on repayment. However this is the nub - they create 100 and demand back 110 at a later date, therefore more must be lent in the interim to avoid a deflationary collapse.
