I’m sure the intellectual giants and/or Goldman Sachs retreads know just where all those millions, billions, and trillions are. They just don’t think the “little people” have a right to that information. After all, they are so much smarter than we are. That is why they are known as “Elites.”
Someone needs to read Dr. Seuss’s book, “Yertle, the Turtle,”
which he wrote about Hitler during WWII. One of these days the entire turtle stack will come crashing down...

Only caught a few minutes getting in-and-out of the car. I’m sure someone here heard it all.

Where did it go? It went to miscellaneous world banks, likely investment houses of a few select individuals.

Of course the two trillion went to bonuses for the executives who orchestrated all of this. This was right after they all got their swine flu shots ahead of the common taters. Plus, they all got free cars from the US auto company. Nothing’s too good for our Wall Street titans (and besides, the idiots go beserk over this sh*t. LOL.)

I expect that the money was used for ‘Quantitative Easing’. They use the money to purchase long bonds, which keeps long term interest rates low and adds high-powered money to the economy by monetizing debt.

“It went to prop up the stock market.”
I couldn’t agree more. Where else is the money coming from? certainly not from 401k contributions, nor from the wealthy re-investing their lost dollars.
I’ve read more than a few articles by actual media outles (as opposed to a random guy with a website) that connect the dots on the investments by banks getting TARP money.
