So I have a odd question....

Since we are in a sense damn near broke as a country (in physical and fianiancal terms)...

What happens the next time?????????

[Lowdown3]

I'm always amazed at the amount and frequency of rabbits that can be pulled out of hats. Nothing surprises me any more.

[bountyhunter69]

what happens next time? PRINT MORE MONEY AS THESE CROOKS HAVE DONE BEFORE..print it as long as rest of the world accepts it,after all,it is fiat money

[GAGLOCK]

It reads like a press release praising the Fed for saving the planet. They were the architects of the collapse and the benefactors of our debts.

Absolutely disgusting!

So we ended up sending a boatload of cash overseas. I had heard that, but didn't really believe it for whatever reason. I did hear that for the amount of money printed in this scam, they could have paid off every mortgage in America. Clearly, they were helping their buddies at our expense. I think they should bust the entire Fed under the RICO laws and then use the fraud laws to get our money back. It's not going to happen, because the people who did it own the politicians in this country, but it's nice to dream.
