Where are spent 9 trillions of dollars of the FED? What became these thousand billion dollars?

When the Americans will understand that you are governed by Rockfeller, Rotschild and his thieves of banksters, you will change!

Obama is only a puppet in the pay of the International Bankers, the same which eliminated Kennedy.

Moreover, they prepare the planning of the attack against Iran and Vénézuela to boost the American economy.

What people don't realize is that this hit in the poorest communities long before it hit anywhere else. I happen to live in one of those communities and for us it started when the price up gas went up. I saw many people going door to door selling their belongings for gas money just so they could make it to and from work. People began to combine their resources and helping one another. This is what poor people do during times like these.

Your video was just what I was looking for. Thank you for this collection of images.

I spent two days looking for most of these for my Econ class presentation.

Thank you.

yup we can see some paralels. only in couple of years in the future we will be able to look back and fully compare&analyze. but i doubt this crisis is the last one. There will be many more..

I think that all this could've been and still can be stopped if the war stopped and if the world wasn't such a greedy place. What we need to do is to give those people food and shelter. But noooooooooo! The government says they can't afford to feed and shelter the rest of the world because they already deal with our country.That is the biggest lie I've ever herd! They say they can't afford to help, yet they can afford to make drugs, buy fancy cars, buy expensive clothes, etc. The world's greedy!

i know some will disagree but

i have to say i think this is all happening

because of THE WAR! & etc

we are in a place where nothing is threatening

us.

millions of dollars disappeared while on its way to help the army??? this war is very questionable

in my opinion.

I do not like the "Obama for Change" slide; too bad he cannot do anything. but true.

Also, at the end the word should be "Current Depression" and not Recession....
