Real Numbers

Post by Caruthers »

The numbers in the table below speak for themselves and do not require a great deal of embellishment. They describe a monetary and financial system in crisis. I last researched and prepared this table in 2007. Much has changed over the past two years, and I could not help but note that the numbers had begun to take on a distinctly Weimar-like* feel.

- Foreign-held debt up 26,347%.
- One-year addition to the national debt up 12,681%.
- Adjusted monetary base up 2701%.
- A $12 trillion national debt.
- $592 trillion in derivatives positions.
- A nearly $700 billion trade deficit.
- And, last but not least, a currency that has depreciated by 82%.
