This being the case, I was just wondering if businesses really do take out more
and more loans every year (i suppose they must be doing so as the economy does
grow). Also , as the cost of doing business declines due to technology etc.
wouldn't businesses (both incumbents and start ups) now need to take out less
loans than before in order to expand/grow ? If so, then would this not mean the
economy would grow at a lower rate - because less new money is entering the
economy via the banking system?
