Where did all the money go?

Brilliant example of online infographics at their best (explaining why the bail-outs won't work), here.

Interesting read...

Nice template. I have been shopping around for one myself and have not seen anything I like. I do like this one you are using. Lots of white space.

Avid reader. Any chance of showcasing my blog on your site? Your blog is well read.

My blog celebrates the accomplishments of people of Igbo descent. The intentions are not insular, it simply serves to present people of Igbo descent with a few role models.

The blog's url is:

Thanks if its possible.

Chexk out Zeitgeist II - a free to download movie which describes the money system and it problems. Zietgeist I looks at God, 911 and money and is also worth a look.

A group called Money Reform in the UK are attempting to put forward alternatives to the present system but not sure anyone with the power to change things is listening - or wants to listen...

@Anonymous 8:59 - yeah consipracy theories have to be considered very carefully before endorsing them.

With regards to 911 there is so much evidence and the investigation was so flawed that there are certainly very very serious questions to be answered by the Bush administration. I have been involved in the campaign for a reopening of the 911 investigation but unfotunately people like Penn & Teller and ill-informed journalists are dismissive. In their dismisiveness they have thrown out the theory of momentum and other physical 'laws'. (Check out ww.gordonssite.com for an explanation of the physics.)

Unfortunately most people don't believe that their governments could be so heartless - yet when you look into 911 you see the crazy schemes that the US and other governments have come up with and sometimes implemented.

Additionally, crackpots come up with schemes and theories for 911 that include lasers, no planes, holograms etc etc. Some of these are well intentioned, some are from government agents but both have the same effect - to discredit the campaign.

What really pisses me off is when people say that the idea of a conspiracy theory is insulting to the families who lost loved ones on 911. WTF! I can't even start to comprehend the logic of that but it is churned out time and time again.

Of course now that there is a black president in the US all of this is going to be straightened out - right?
