You need to know this. Forget about the $700 billion dollars in federal aid known as TARP that went to the banksters back in 2008. That was just the tip of the iceberg. According to new secret documents released yesterday by the Federal Reserve – between 2007 and this year – the Fed pumped more than 3 trillion dollars into the hands of banks and businesses to stave off financial collapse. 3 trillion dollars!Thom's blog - Thursday December 2nd, 2010

Many incoming Republican freshman members - as well as old guard figures within the party - are promising to deliver on their threat to shut down the government.
