In de UK zijn ze een paar stappen voor op ons: It might sound unbelievable, but for the last 170 years, parliament has ignored the question of how money is created. The last significant debate on the creation of money in Parliament happened in 1844! And even though money plays an extraordinarily important role in today’s world, most Members of Parliament still wrongly believe that only the Bank of England has the authority to create money. On Tuesday the 21st of October Steve Baker MP stood before the Backbench Committee and made a bid for a historic debate in the Chamber on ‘Money Creation and Society’ “I believe that this is a problem that is absolutely at the heart of our society and what is wrong with our economy. The organisation Positive Money has helped me to campaign on this issue… I want it to be on money creation and society to flesh out both the problem and the range of possible solutions.” positivemoney.org/
