Citigroup: $2.5 trillion ($2,500,000,000,000) Morgan Stanley: $2.04 trillion ($2,040,000,000,000) Merrill Lynch: $1.949 trillion ($1,949,000,000,000) Bank of America: $1.344 trillion ($1,344,000,000,000) Wow. It only adds to the question of whom Lehman had offended, that they weren't bailed out too. Has any of this been paid back? I can only be amazed that the dollar hasn't dropped through the floor. This was posted over a month ago. When you have Jim DeMint, Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders backing anything, you know you have a most unusual confluence of events.

Nobody can wrap their minds around numbers like that. Nobody. That's the problem. We let them build a minefield because they told us how it would protect us. Now they have created so many mines, trillions, we are realizing that they can't understand those numbers either, and don't know the way out of what they have created. So they do the only thing they know how. Print more mines, while they search like mice to find the way out of a growing, unnavigable maze.
