"$43 trillion? Math fail."

There's a quadrillion ways the banks manipulate the value of financial transactions and commodities. Here's a good article on the LIBOR scandal

Libor Woes Threaten to Turn Companies Off Syndicated Loans

Libor is calculated from a daily survey carried out for the British Bankers Association in London, in which the world’s biggest lenders are asked the rate they’re charged to borrow over a variety of short-term maturities in currencies including dollars, euros and yen. Banks are accused of massaging down submissions for the benchmark for $360 trillion of global securities during the financial crisis and artificially increasing them before it.
