$700 billion is nothing

Voters are rightly furious at the proposal to spend $700,000,000,000 that the government doesn't have to bail out Wall Street bankers who created the current economic crisis in the first place. But why then aren't we concerned about the trillions of dollars the Federal Reserve is pumping into the system? Or the trillions missing from the Pentagon? Or the quadrillion dollar derivatives bubble.

U know what some famous ppl said about this nation? They said, "let them assume that they have freedom of speech. let them bark as much as they want. the real power lies in the few who control the whole. So it does not matter how much the ppl bark, they will do whatever they want and the whole country will not be able to make any difference." you want another example of this same thing? Ancient Roman Empire. The thing Thomas Jefferson feared the most is occurring right now.

People who made this vid don't understand some of the principles of basic finance. Derivatives represent a notional amount, which is a fictitious number on which the semi-annual payments (swaps) are made. If you use the logic that the quadrillion number is ridiculous, then you should not believe in banking, because the money supply that truly exist is lower than the actual theoretical money supply. Its the same with derivatives.
