Either you're arguing in bad faith or you're too dense to understand how this works. You make a claim and can't support it. That means your claim has no merit. It means nothing without supporting evidence. Nobody has to disprove it because it carries no value. You say it's well understood, but can't back it up. That's it. Baseless claims are equivalent to falacy that don't need disproven.

This doesnt specify how it was spent. I am assuming loans are taken out from banks and they need funds to pay back the interest on the loans. I dont see information on that specifically though.
