Here's the problem...

Corruption occurred for decades now.

We're really really fucked up.

We need to think not about billions and trillions and such... we need to think about where we want to be headed and how to get there.

Right now we want to recover ~3 trillion dollars (I hope I'm getting that number right) that vanished from our economy.

Billions right now are peanuts compared to the craphole we're sunk in.
