Ya get this !!!!!


It gets even worse. The secrecy also extends to an even bigger rescue program you may not have heard about at all.

Last September, the Federal Reserve quietly relaxed its rules for giving loans to banks and institutions. Since then, it's loaned out $1.2 trillion.

And even Congress can't get a top banking regulator to tell who got the money.

"Which institutions received that and how much for each institution?" asked Rep. Alan Grayson.

Federal Reserve vice-chair Donald Kohn said, on Jan. 13, 2009: "I'd be very concerned, Congressman, that if we published the individual names of those borrowing from us, no one would borrow from us."

Grayson responded: "You're saying that entitles you to keep secret the $1.2 trillion? Four thousand dollars for every man, woman and child in this country?"

"I don't think we're keeping it secret," Kohn said. "I think we're releasing a lot of information about it."

Well call me stupid !  I just found some weird news that I had never heard of before.  But it sure makes sense as to why sooooooooo much of that "stimulus" money is targeted at DC.....

Do you know they are building an Underground Visitors Center at what was proposed to cost $251 mil and is now over $620 mil
 :bash:   It is commonly refered to as the "money pit" by Republicans.

It says that it will be 50' below ground, with a tunnel that goes between Capitol hill and the Library of congress..

WTF
have any of you ever been there ?  Its not far at all between these two bldgs.  Why a tunnel ?

Have any of you heard of this project before ?
