Where is the Money?

Hey DU check out this new story and links http://fromthewilderness.com It poses some very interesting questions. I don't know how to post paragraphs from the article or I would. Maybe someone can help. I would like to have a discussion on what everyone thinks about these scandals.

Well Lib I am not sure, it seems like quite a bit of money that has gone missing. Where do you think it went?

A new interactive web site hits you in the face over the Enron-Style looting of the US Treasury and what it means to You personally - A political reality check for California's political circus and all of America.

The importance of the issue, and why it must be injected into every political debate from now on, is dramatically emphasized by the political circus unfolding in California which has been sparked by massive budget deficits, not all of which are attributable to political mismanagement. If such a belief were true, then California would be the only state facing such crises. Instead, we see a nation sinking under red ink while trillions of our dollars are missing.

The "whereisthemoney" web site makes a point of the cost of conversion of oil- powered vehicles to natural gas. FTW must emphasize that irreversible natural gas shortages in North America and worldwide make such a move both impossible and inadvisable. But, as a teaching point, the figures are astounding. This example highlights the money that might be available to develop biodiesel fuels or to facilitate the essential infrastructure changes required to develop, for example, hybrid and solar technologies that will soften the growing impact and reality of Peak Oil and Gas. These challenges are only going to get worse.

I hope that helps. Thanks for sharing this. I am going to delve into it tomorrow as it is bed time for me.
