Relationship With Other Theories of Money
Debt theories of money fall into a broader category of work which postulates that monetary creation is endogenous.
In the forms commonly held by those to the left of the political spectrum, Debt theories have some overlap with Chartalism and are opposed to Metallism and often to the Quantity theory of money. Conversely, in the forms held by those with a Libertarian or Conservative perspective, debt theories of money are often compatible with the Quantity theory, and with Metalism at least when the latter is broadly understood.

Famous quotes containing the words relationship, theories and/or money:
“Every relationship that does not raise us up pulls us down, and vice versa; this is why men usually sink down somewhat when they take wives while women are usually somewhat raised up. Overly spiritual men require marriage every bit as much as they resist it as bitter medicine.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It takes twenty or so years before a mother can know with any certainty how effective her theories have been—and even then there are surprises. The daily newspapers raise the most frightening questions of all for a mother of sons: Could my once sweet babes ever become violent men? Are my sons really who I think they are?”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root, and it may be that he who bestows the largest amount of time and money on the needy is doing the most by his mode of life to produce that misery which he strives in vain to relieve.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
