Can someone answer the question on why the FED has not returned or even answered as to why they have not returned Trillions of dollars back to the US now would be a good time.
The FED owns half of the national debt, this equals roughly 1.5 Trillion dollars for the year at their average 5% interest rate. Add in their transaction fees and they easily made a profit of 2 Trillion dollars which the majority must be returned to the US minus their operating costs.
The US Treasury balance sheet shows they only returned 500 Billion as of 2008.
33 pages and counting.......stop dancing around the question already.

| Originally posted by culorut Sorry but 837,004 views means that a hell of a lot of people are watching them. And this number accounts for only one nationally aired video on this subject. This does not include the people who watched it live or the many hundreds of other live feeds that were aired and watched by the same kind of numbers. The numbers are in the ten's of millions easily. Thanks but no thanks for trying. |

| Originally posted by jerZ07002 where are you pulling those bullshit numbers? first, a few posts back i provided treasury links that shows that the fed only owns 1.111 trillion of 11 trillion of US government debt. second, the US government does not pay anywhere near 5%. It's more in the range of 3-4%. here's the link again: http://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/...ddebt_may09.pdf |

| Originally posted by culorut I already posted and explained how I came up with these numbers, which if you paid attention or actually knew simple math and central banking procedures you would of understood it by now. Here you go, read and learn. Firstly the national debt is around 11.5 Trillion dollars. This consists of Intragovernmental debt and Public debt. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_public_debt Out of the 5.8 Trillion dollars of Public debt, the FED's hold all of it, which is used as collateral for printing money. Out of that 5.8 Trillion dollars, 3 Trillion is owned by foreign governments. http://www.treas.gov/tic/mfh.txt This means the FED's own roughly 50% of their collateral. With a money supply of 52 Trillion dollars which is created by the Mandrake Mechanism (10 x 5.8 Trillion = 58 Trillion dollars minus the actual reserves themselves because they are not counted) at a 5% interest average this would equal 1.25 Trillion dollars in interest earned each year plus their other transaction fees. 2 Trillion dollars easily, thank you very much. Unless of course you can explain another way of how 52 Trillion is created out of thin air I challenge you to prove me wrong. So once again the FED reported on the 2008 balance sheet that they returned 500 Billion dollars, where is the rest of the money? |
And where do you get the $52 trillion from? As you can ably read, there were only 8.3 trillion in money supply (currency + savings deposits... currency alone is a mere 1.6 trillion) at the beginning of the month.

The "Mandrake Mechanism" specifies the possible extent of collatoral monetization, not what is actually occuring. So while the Federal Reserve might be legally allowed to conjure up roughly $10 trillion in money supply (see jerz's post to reference the ACTUAL amount of collateral held by the Reserve), they've showed a great deal of restraint in stopping at $8.3 trillion.
With 5% annual interest on $8.3 trillion, it shouldn't surprise you that the Federal Reserve apparently went above the $415 billion it earned, returning $500 billion to the Treasury.
It's easy to ask questions that nobody has answers to when you use faulty math and data to produce them.

| Originally posted by jerZ07002 blah blah blah - read the fucking official treasury reports, which directly refutes your claim. It clearly establishes that the fed owns 1.1 trillion of public debt. |

| Originally posted by pkcRAISTLIN you haven't given us one single piece of information that indicates that this money you're talking about belongs back with the treasury. as we have repeatedly tried to educate you: only PROFITS are returned. you have no idea what this money was intended for, so (once again) you're beginning your conspiratorial nonsense with a flawed premise. go back to school! |
| quote: |
| Originally posted by culorut They are able to charge interest on the roughly half of the National debt they own. Using the Mandrake Mechanism they are charging interest on 52 Trillion dollars not 5.5 Trillion of what they own. This is because of the multiplier of the Mandrake Mechanism which is 10 times what is actually in the reserve they own. |
| quote: |
| You said they'r giving back only 10, 20% dipshit. I posted an income statement and balance sheet of the Fed's portfolio and clearly they do not make profits. |
| quote: |
| Originally posted by Lebezniatnikov Um, prove it. The Mandrake Mechanism, as I mentioned, stipulates what is allowed by US law if the Fed maxed out their monetization - not what actually exists. Look, if you're going to continue to ignore data, such as that presented by myself in the Money Stock Measures report or by jerz in the Treasury report, what point is there in continuing this discussion? You're clearly incapable of processing information that doesn't congeal nicely with your loose interpretation of libertarian websites. And frankly, for being such a crusader for the people, you really do have an unbelievable disdain for them. |

| Originally posted by culorut How much money supply is in the economy based on the percentage of the National debt the FED owns? a. 5.8 Trillion b. 52 Trillion You really should stop contributing to this thread if you cannot answer this correctly. |

| Originally posted by culorut Profits=Interest They make profits from 52 Trillion in the money supply they are creating using a 10 x multiplier. They are accountable to pay all of it back minus operating expenses to the USA. If you think there is only 11.5 Trillion dollars in money supply then there would not be any paper money or credit to go around you fucking moron. Central banks are allowed to create money out of thin air and idiots like you pay interest on it. Without debt there would be ZERO money. Go back to fucking school or stay in it if you feel you can get better at grasping basic knowledge. A quick warning though....which ever path you might decide, it's not going to help if you are retarded. |
