"9-11 erased $8 trillion from our capital ..."

That is a very specific number, one which is similiar to our National Debt. Where did it come from?

This is the estimate Lou Rukeyser felt was closest to reality. There were estimates from $5 trillion to $10 trillion. The WSJ was full of these estimates back in the first half of 2002. It's a big number regardless.
