But that's how a normal corp works, and the fed is not a normal corp.
Printing money, does not mean the machine is actually stamping money. When they give a bank 10 million, they don't print and ship them 10 million dollars. They get some cash, the majority is digital.
Money does not need a debt backing it, ever... it should not create debt to print our own money. Once the money is given to a bank and then to a person/corp, interest is understandable. Up to the point, it's fraud!

mmm. sorry, but this is incorrect. see above. perhaps i misused the term *backing up* but for every dollar the fed prints, there is a corresponding dollar of debt issued.
& vice versa
