I Don't Believe We Have the Technology or Capability to Print "Trillions of Dollars"...

How much Ink...How many printing presses...How much labor...to print "Trillions of Dollars" in the time frame of the last few months? I don't believe it is possible. To me, this is further proof of market manipulation with "Digital Money"...They are not flooding the market with paper, only computer money. It would take thousands of tractor trailers of ink (maybe houndreds of thousands) just to print one trillion dollars...Any thoughts?

That is why the Fed bought into commercial paper.

They should have bought into commercial INK as well to print on the paper. They should have also bought telephone companies and ISPs to wire this the money around the world. The numbers discussed and the denominations on the bonds get bigger, as the value goes down. Remember that. 1,000 million is one billion...I still can't get my head around a billion.

Hate to burst your bubble

Hate to burst your bubble but they stopped physically printing money. It is now wired transferred out of thin air. about 3% is actually money the rest is electronic. So printing of money is just putting a number into a system, not spending money on ink and paper (they still do this but not as much).

It's all just play money…

…It really doesn't exist except as a computer entry somewhere. RHINO pretty much answered what was going on in his excellent post, "Ready For $100.00 Oil?". Here is just a bit of his post:

"…What has really changed, in a tangible way in the economy in the past year? A few more percent of unemployment, and a stronger dollar hurting exports. The bank stuff, derivatives, play money...it's just that, play money. The game the fed and the banks are playing right now, it's kind of the "big bank insurance" role that the fed plays. It doesn't have a long term tangible effect on the money supply, because they're only replacing what's being destroyed (plus a little extra...a tip).

Banks make money via inflation. They bring in more money than the economic conditions warrant, and in the process the banks steal just a little money from the dollar in my pocket.

The banks, the big ones, are absolutely insured against the losses from the bubbles the fed creates. Money is being burned through writedowns, but created a little faster. The big banks are going to get more money than they've lost, and the leftover is simple value lost due to inflation. The bank keeps the leftover.…"

In a nutshell, all of the so-called money that has been lost in the stock market & banking system over the past year or so, never really existed except in a computer. Think of it as the imaginary equity that people (thought) they had in their homes, and who used that imaginary equity to finance their new Hummer. When the housing bubble collapsed, the market simply started adjusting homes to the REAL market value. The imaginary equity (that never existed), simply vaporized back to whence in came. All the imaginary money being handed out by the Fed is just replacing the lost vapor money with more vapor money to balance the books.

Everybody talks about the second Great Depression that is coming. Personally, I don't see much more than a temporary recession. I believe it is all about creating a temporary fear with the population to prime American Zombies into accepting the coming socialist/communist America. If this plan of the NWO wasn't so damned evil, I would have to admire it for its shear brilliance.

The NWO is all about creating F.E.A.R. (false evidence appearing real). Think about it. Do you think that the NWO would actually destroy the entire world economy? I think not (it's their primary means of control). They want to seem like hero's when their BULLS**T market manipulations actually APPEAR to be working. Everybody will breath a "collective" sigh of relief and rejoice that the FED/Central Bank did such a great job. One of the secrets of the NWO is to create the problem and then appear to solve the problem that THEY created. It's an age old trick that works to fool the populace EVERY time. FEAR is your greatest enemy. Remember: "Infinite Love Is the Only Truth: Everything Else Is Illusion", David Icke

temporary recession??? its

temporary recession??? its been going on since December of last year? actually I think its been going on longer then that. I do not trust Government statistics! I don't know how old you are but I am willing to bet you have not lived through tough times! if the fed can do what you are syaing then we should have good economic times all the time?

I'm 62 Years Old, Sonny! Temporary to me means a few years…

… as far as "living through hard times", I have lived through all of the recessions created since 1946. I have lost EVERYTHING at least three times in my life, and five years ago, I lived through the government confiscating virtually my entire life savings of $180,000.00. Now, I don't worry so much about money. I simply started to refuse being in debt and living within my means. Also, now I make my living in the underground economy. I have applied for and now receive government assistance [imaginary digits] to replace what they illegally stole (I figure that by the time I'm 90, I will have been repaid). I have far fewer problems and am much happier. I forced the government to pay for my $80,000 heart surgery (that they caused by leaving me a pauper.) They must now cover all of my medical expenses for the rest of my life, (that I was paying for myself before the theft.) In addition, I have made myself "judgment proof" with NO WAY the government will ever be able to steal my savings again. Although, I am not near wealthy (or even middle class), I now have more than enough to meet my frugal expenses, with even some left over for savings (gold & silver coins.) I am now a much happier and "stress free" man. The government hates producers, except for the purpose of plunder. And NO! You and everyone else are NOT being forced to pay for what the government MUST simply return to me. If YOU don't like being fleeced by your masters, then go into the underground economy, stop paying taxes and force them to repay what they have stolen from you. Their system will eventually collapse under it's own weight. I have given the government the "illusion" that I am now a pauper and one of their dependents. They are now happy and leave me alone in peace. It made me feel so good to send $2,000.00 in government assistance money to the Ron Paul campaign.

Cool..

I would like to know more of how you did this???

Oh and I think it was Jzneff that addressed the $100.00 barrel of oil questions.

lol..... nothing wrong with

lol..... nothing wrong with that.. with recessions tho.. most never last longer then a year. the last time we had a long recession was 79' 80'
again 2 different sets of circumstances--- our country, its finances and our government was much different then it is today! look alittle deeper at the the underlying fundamentals. At some point the natural laws of economics take over and the fed or whoever is trying to manipulate the system will lose.. in the 30's it took only 10 billion to get the US out of a Depression.. now we have thrown 8+ trillion, and they are not even close to being able to get this thing reinflated!

Naw, all you've got to do, is....

put a few extra zeros on all bills, and presto, the $100 bill becomes the $100,000, $1,000,000 dollar bill. Just imagine how rich we'll all be!

alan laney

I was thinking of EMP consequences too...

Hard to imagine the chaos it would cause...Then again, just another way to impose and necessitate the Amero??

I shudder at the thought

That makes me want to hit up the ATM. Imagine if today at 1pm an emp went off. Would you be able to get anything out of your bank? How much money of yours is on hand? How much food storage do you have? No don't tell me just think about it.

well

if they really printed off all those dollars it would be quite a feat of a printing press, could still be done though...

however, they don't have to print off every dollar, in reality the process is done digitally and they just have to fill in the amount

only 3% of our entire money supply is actual paper money, the rest is just digital numbers, on computers, in banks

Following the Weimarks

It would probably take just a few seconds to print a hundred Ten Billion Dollar Fe'ral Reserve Notes. Those extra zeroes don't really soak up that much extra ink.

You have a point

In another life, I worked for a printer that did a lot of government work, especially for the social security administration. We would have runs of 10,000,000 pieces that would be on the presses for weeks. It was very very boring to have to work with the same stuff on a cutter for weeks on end.

But now all of our money is kept in "data vaults". What I would like to know is what happens if we go shields down during a CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) and we get a massive EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) that wipes out all computers...even the ones in automobiles!

Seems we have problems developing and it ain't got nuttin' to do with CO2 levels.

I read

that only 3% of U.S. dollars are in federal reserve notes. The rest is all electronic. I don't remember which book I read it in.

good point

Don't I recall

they were printing 10,000,000-Mark notes toward the end in Wiemar Germany? Watch out for bigger denomination bills to enter circulation ;-)

I wonder whose going to be the first trillionaire.

a figure of speech

I think many of us - including Dr. Paul and Peter Schiff (my heroes) - are a little loose with our terminology at times. The vast majority of the money being created by the Fed is in the form of electronic accounts, not FRNs. Indeed, it is this "electronic" money that vanishes when loan are paid back or banks fail. But it is easier to refer to the Fed "printing" money than going into the details of the way the Fed actually creates it. And it is easier for the public to understand.

A stack of "One Trillion Dollars" would be 62,500 miles high...

In my opinion, this is a dead giveaway of market manipulation to induce recession / depression...

Of course it's not really "printing"

You're right - it's all computer money. It's still rapidly increasing the money supply, though - and you should be worried. I don't have the figures in front of me, but even in normal times, only something like 1/3 of all money is in physical currency - the rest are 1s and 0s in a database...
