Thanks
to heroic
efforts of Congressman Ron Paul, former Congressman Alan Grayson and
Congressman Bernie Sanders to audit the Federal Reserve, we now know
that the
Federal Reserve secretly lent out $26 trillion worth of American money from
2007 to 2010 -- much of it to foreign banks.
Twenty. Six.
TRILLION. Dollars.
This
is a very difficult number to comprehend -- but we now have a way to wrap our
minds around it.
At
his website usdebt.kleptocracy.us, Los
Angeles-based 3D designer Oto
Godfrey
has created an incredibly powerful series of images to help us actually
visualize this much money, were it to be assembled out of brick-sized
stacks of 100-dollar bills. And this website goes into more detail about
each category of the loan making.
Fifteen
trillion dollars -- or one year's worth of the US National Debt -- is a stack
of hundred-dollar bills that is longer and wider than a football field . . and
over 2/3rds the height of the Statue of Liberty.
If
you add another $11 Trillion to get our total of $26 Trillion, that same stack,
covering an entire football field, will now be taller than the Statue of
Liberty.
In the Face of This, Congressman
Grayson Spoke the Terrible Truth
Here
is a small part of the letter in
which Congressman Grayson reveals how he found this startling number, 26
trillion, in the newly-audited Federal Reserve balance sheets .
Congressman
Grayson: " I wouldn't
want anyone to think that I'm dramatizing or amplifying what this GAO report
says, so I'm just going to quote some of my favorite parts, by page number."
