Meanwhile internet propaganda constantly tells people that it is a push based system, that somehow the Fed is telling the commercial banks to issue more loans and then for every dollar in created reserves the commercial bank calls and naggs you that you should borrow more and somehow the citizens just keep falling for it every single time.
