To start,  I don't think we necessarily have to ascribe bad intentions, or good intentions for that matter.  I ask, where did 30,534.5 billion go during the years 2000-through-2014, which was borrowed and spent off-budget (with total borrowing of 38,562 billion with a deficit of 8,027.5 billion).  I'm sure that the same trend continues.  Intentions and/or motivations don't solve the problem.  Of course, the DOD and Ben's Department (before he became the head of it) according to Catherine Austin Fitts was a notable part of 21 trillion dollars in missing money, which goes under the cute name "undocumentable adjustements."   And, out of that 30,534.5 billion in off-budget borrowing and spending, 2,400 can be rationalized as (a) overseas military expenditures & (b) bailouts, but that still leaves 28,134.5 billion unable to be justified.  In 15 years amongst an average of 138,679,561 federal filers, that averages 202,874.16 per filer, or per filer that's 13,524.94 per filer per year for 15 years.  Since the median income was about 25,049.06 per filer, that non-justifiable value is 1/2 the value of the median income per filer if we all earned that wage.   Or, think of it this way.  Since we earned 116,023,908,881,000 dollars in 15 years (2000-14), 28,134,500,000,000 represents 24.24% the value of all IRS declared income that we have NO IDEA WHERE IT WENT--whatsoever   (PS... You can examine my graphics and verify the following information. https://politichatter.com/ThomasPRevisited is my Politichatter.com address. 

    To make it easy to understand, given what occurred between 2000-14, if that trend continues, that would ential over a million dollars per nuclear family (i.e., two wage earner family) during their work livetimes borrowed and spent by government without rationalization--and this does not consider the value created by American human labor, which was given up to fraud, waste, and abuse. 

     At some point, how much non-accountability do you accept?  At what point do you conclude your life and "YOUR" country have been lost/taken/stolen?  Can you say, given what has been stated above, if true, that you are represented?  How? Are you "said-represented" only by an owned and controlled sheeple mollifying organization? Do you become a willing part of a house divided agaisnt itself--for money? I find these honest questions, and I have documented the aforementioned reality in my Profile  Section---as well as my politichatter account. https://politichatter.com/ThomasPRevisited 

And if I think about it, if Don Corleone himself ran modern America, I would council him that this much theft is bad for business.

PS.... I do answer questions.
