At present banks only need less than 10% of the value of a loan, mortgage or other credit as actual money and can simply create the remainder as new money upon lending. This floods the economy with new interest bearing debt during boom times, such as property bubbles, massively creating inflation, and it allows those who control banks to effectively control the rest of the economy and is inherently unstable, creating economic crashes. Banks should only be able to lend out the actual money they hold in printed notes and minted coins and fractional lending should be outlawed.","committee_note":null,"state":"closed","signature_count":8,"created_at":"2011-08-05T22:58:07.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:26:38.019Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2011-08-17T13:28:01.000Z","closed_at":"2012-08-17T13:28:01.000Z","moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2011-08-05T22:58:07.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}},{"type":"archived-petition","id":47404,"links":{"self":"https://preview.epetitions.website/archived/petitions/47404.json"},"parliament":{"period":"2010-2015","government":"Conservative – Liberal Democrat coalition","dissolution_at":"2015-03-30T23:59:59.000+01:00","response_threshold":10000,"debate_threshold":100000},"attributes":{"action":"The Ashes should be free to air on UK TV","background":null,"additional_details":"People should not be forced to pay for the Ashes and it should be free for all to watch.","committee_note":null,"state":"closed","signature_count":8,"created_at":"2013-03-20T16:14:41.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:28:57.720Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2013-03-22T11:49:30.000Z","closed_at":"2014-03-22T11:49:30.000Z","moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2013-03-20T16:14:41.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}},{"type":"archived-petition","id":59174,"links":{"self":"https://preview.epetitions.website/archived/petitions/59174.json"},"parliament":{"period":"2010-2015","government":"Conservative – Liberal Democrat coalition","dissolution_at":"2015-03-30T23:59:59.000+01:00","response_threshold":10000,"debate_threshold":100000},"attributes":{"action":"Common sense should prevail over claimants suffering genuine disabilities having their benefits stopped","background":null,"additional_details":"People who suffer from genuine illnesses or disabilities such as arthritis, motor neurone disease, Parkinsons Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Cystic Fibrosis (to name but a few) should be automatically placed into the ESA support group.
