How Big Is the Government's Debt? - $33.1 TRILLION!

How Big Is the Government's Debt?
"When these obligations are combined with the debt held by the public, the total burden equals $33.1 trillion, or 10 times the official debt measure. This "total debt" is more than three times the size of the nation's total output in 2001, and amounts to $116,381 for every man, woman and child in America."

"With the decline of society begins, indeed, the bellum omnium in omnia war of all against all, which some philosophers observing to be so general in this world, have mistaken it for the natural, instead of the abusive state of man. And the fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression."
Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816. ME 15:40

Ran across this...

JPMorgan and Citigroup are sacrificing themselves in order to collapse the US economy.

"They" know "they" are doomed, and I even suspect that the situation went out of control much more than "they" expected...but hey, now "they" have lots of scapegoats [terrorists and greedy CEOs] that will lead the masses to believe that it was not "their" fault.

But more importantly, many people are unaware that banks are immune from war and any other disaster. You may prosecute bankers but not the banking institutions as a body. There lies the trick!

It is in "their" interest to sacrifice themselves because revealing the truth won't enable "them" to restart the whole fraudulent process after the global economic collapse.

[Text amended on account of the renumbering of the Articles of the Statutes and sanctioned on 10th December 1969 in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 1 of the Convention respecting the Bank for International Settlements.]

Whereas the Powers signatory to the Hague Agreement of January, 1930, have adopted a Plan which contemplates the founding by the central banks of Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy and Japan and by a financial institution of the United States of America {some reason they can't get themselves to say Federal Reserve?} of an International Bank to be called the Bank for International Settlements;

[...]

1. The Bank for International Settlements (hereinafter called the Bank) is hereby incorporated.

2. Its constitution, operations and activities are defined and governed by the annexed Statutes which are hereby sanctioned.

[...]

5. The said Statutes and any amendments which may be made thereto in accordance with Paragraphs 3 or 4 hereof respectively shall be valid and operative notwithstanding any inconsistency therewith in the provisions of any present or future Swiss law.

[...]

10.The Bank, its property and assets and all deposits and other funds entrusted to it shall be immune in time of peace and in time of war from any measure such as expropriation, requisition, seizure, confiscation, prohibition or restriction of gold or currency export or import, and any other similar measures.

"Government on the Brink"

June 5, 2001

Washington - U.S. Senator Fred Thompson (R-TN), chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, today released a comprehensive report documenting the daunting management problems facing the federal government. Thompson presented the recently compiled report, which includes his recommendations for addressing those problems, to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. at a press conference in Washington.

"For some time now, our government has been mismanaged to an extent that the average American would find shocking," Senator Thompson said. "The federal government’s core management problems have persisted for years, and, in fact, have grown worse."

Thompson’s report includes an analysis of the four biggest challenges facing the federal government:
