NEW YORK - In a sign of the times, the National Debt Clock in New York City has run out of digits to record the growing figure. As a short-term fix, the digital dollar sign on the billboard-style clock near Times Square has been switched to a figure — the "1" in $10 trillion. It's marking the federal government's current debt at about $10.2 trillion.

Cost of 911 30 billion not counting Homeland Security budget of over 100 billiion

bankers and wall street bailout 700 billion to a trillion

Schwarzenegger wants 7-40 billion to help California, Schwarzenegger said the crisis meant California, the most populous and wealthiest US state, was unable to access routine financing used to make payments to schools, local government and law enforcement.

As Washington lawmakers debate as massive, $700 billion, bailout for Wall Street firms that invested in mortgages, CEOs have come under new scrutiny for their multi-million-dollar salaries, even when their companies have suffered.

The bailout plan is likely to have limits on the so-called "Golden Parachutes" for executives forced to leave.

ABC News, in collaboration with James F. Reda and Associates, complied a list of some of the companies in the headlines today and looked at just how much money some of these CEOs are taking home.

Wars and economic recessions and depressions are the most important engines of wealth and power expansion that the global banking families have. Hence several families have profited from most wars over the last two hundred years, and from the distress caused by economic crisis like the Great Depression. To deliberately profit from, and worst to deliberately work to set up and cause wars and depressions, to enrich oneself is a very deep and sick form of evil. It is not surprising that many involved in these families are said to be satanic (Lucifer worshipers) in their beliefs. These are the evil criminals that control our politicians, our stock markets, our banking and insurance institutions, our industries, and our mainstream media.
You know you are living in most interesting times when more and more people are using terms like "new Great Depression" and "World War III". www.rense.com/general8...
