Where is the biggest bank in the world?

[SnoopDog]

Why, its the United States Treasury of course...

Where are the most bank robbers in the world? Why the US House and Senate of course...

Let's see if we can set this all straight...

Congressmen, Senators, and the President make the laws and run the United States.

Congressmen, Senators, and the President don't have to listen to the people...they have the police and the army. And they have Lobbyists they listen to.

Congressmen, Senators, and the President make laws that drain our Treasury.

Congressmen, Senators, and the President are above the law - they only enforce the law on the 'little people'.

And they get their money from us - the taxpayers...

1. Simple, straightforward, proven

Amazing how many people argue against the conclusion this leads to.

[anigbrowl]

6. But staggeringly wrong

Starting with the fact that the treasury is not a bank. I mean, is that so hard to get right? This has nothing to do with liberalism or conservatism, or even the US specifically. Treasury =/= central bank just about anywhere.

17. Nope

But bush is using is as his own personal ATM, so the difference is negligible.

The Fed is our "Central Bank" and I didn't want to even got there.

2. I would have said it's in Switzerland

[SnoopDog]

3. That could be true, however, you are forgetting...

The Feds have control the endless money machine called the Printing Press!

4. thanks SnoopDog

I just did a copy and paste and sent this to my congressman and both my senators. I'm voting for their oponents.

[SnoopDog]

11. Sure...

I can't tell you how much my heart aches and how much my blood boils to what these traitors are doing to America and Americans.

I now know the fire that possessed our founder's soul to rise against those who would artificially claim superiority to humanity.

5. Actually, the Treasury is not a bank. The Federal Reserve is.

http://www.federalreserve.gov/aboutthefed/mission.htm

They are two separate and distinct entities.

9. But,

How can you call the Federal reserve a bank, when it has no reserve? (nor is it Federal)

The Federal Reserve just gives the Treasury the go ahead to issue currency, or electronic credit, and then starts the clock on the interest.

Ultimately, they made the original bad investments and should bear the burden of the mistake.

13. Ummm....I don't think you're doing that right.

The reading comprehension, I mean.

Try again. Just take the few moments needed to read those two links above and maybe a Wikipedia entry or two.

15. My comprehension is just fine thanks,

Momma always said stupid is as stupid believes. (people still believe WIKI, WTF)

18. Great video for those who dont know how money is created

I didn't know G Edward Griffin was still alive :)

7. HSBC... Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corporation

Largest bank in terms of market value.

8. Taxation without representation. Didn't we fight a Revolution over that?

[gopbuster]

10. The "lender of last resort" is actually the Federal Reserve and the

Central Banks. This is my conundrum.

Where are the Rockefellors and Rothchilds in all of this?

[gopbuster]

12. as well as the IMF....

"it is easier to enact unwise policy in the midst of crisis than to reverse course after the crisis has passed, after policies become embodied in institutions or statutes."

[SnoopDog]

14. Maybe I used the wrong word "bank"

How about "where is the best place to 'legally' steal a brazillion dollars and nobody can stop them?
