If I wanted to start a small business ---where would be my source of capital? The BANK, the bank which would give a middle class person money. I don't even have to know who the investors are, but many of them would be people like myself. A little left over money they decided to invest.

Read carefully, FITZ.

The source of capitol, are those people who place their money in the bank. When more people invest and save, credit restrictions are relaxed, providing more access to that same capital. When economic conditions remove the incentive to save and invest; credit restrictions are tightened, removing available capital from people wishing to better their economic condition.

The Banks are not what you need to worry about; it is the people who would either put money in, or take money OUT, that you should worry about. That is what ultimately determines the health of the economy.
