I found out yesterday, that we "the public" only owe 10.3 trillion (video is slightly old) of the 15+ trillion dollar national debt. The government owes the rest. Now doesn't that make you feel a lot better!
Now you know how much you owe, let see how well the FED is keeping track of that money.

OH, and by the way, do you remember the 2.3 trillion dollars the Pentagon lost in 2001 (I think it is on a yearly basis now)? Click on Donald Rumsfeld to see how they made it disappear... I think it was an airplane.
To put everything in perspective here is Glen Beck, I don't usually watch his show, but I thought the video illustrated our national debt in a very understandable way:
And here is how the stimulus money was distributed.
(I made a side-show of the www.recovery.gov web site
here. )
OK, Let Me See If I Understand This "National Debt" Issue Correctly!
First watch Bloomberg's video:
We all thought we were bailing out Wall Street with the TARP (Troubled Asset Recovery Program) program which was highlighted in the media as $800 Billion dollars Treasury debt. Which was going to straddle our children with a greatly increased national debt for years.
Then we find out that the FED, who is not part of our government, lent out an additional $7.7 Trillion dollars in our name (we are on the hook for this money).
Then they gave the Treasury more money.
Then they gave the banks more money.
Which totals to.
So this is the difference in what I perceived the American people owed as a national debt and what the FED, a private institution, perceives we owe.
What is even weirder is Bloomberg had to sue the FED to get this information

and won.
But, the FED was unwilling to give up the information, so they appealed, with the help of their friends at The Clearing House. Anything look suspicious?
The
Clearing House Payments Company L.L.C. is owned by the following banks:
Bank of America, N.A. The Bank of New York Mellon
Branch Banking and Trust Company
Capital One
Citibank, N.A. City National Bank
Comerica Bank
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas
Fifth Third Bank
First Citizens Bank & Trust Company
HSBC Bank USA, N.A.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. KeyBank, N.A.

Our government is powerless to stop it. It is the few
Elites in control of the wealthiest banks in the world that are in control. You might also want to see the
FED menu and the
Money, Power & Greed (Banks) menu..
Now go back to Overview on the Introductory (Home) page.
From Bloomberg.com
Bloomberg did a complete overview of what went into the "Wall Street" Bail-out. These are very good and informative videos.
Note: these videos are from Bloombergs own web site, so please use the scroll bars to re-position their video player. Usually about 1/2 to 1 inch from the top, and it looks like the first video need to be centered.
