Freidman) selon lequel une dépense publique additionnelle financée par emprunt auprès des agents non bancaires élève les taux d'intérêt, ce qui a pour conséquence une baisse des dépenses privées de la part des souscripteurs à l'emprunt ou de ceux qui eussent empruntés les fonds à des taux plus faibles.
