ATTN money ppl: Where does one come up with 2.3 trillion dollars?

[wum]

That was the figure that Donald Rumsfeld admits that the Pentagon can't account for BEFORE the Iraq war. My question is, where the fuck does that much money come from? Obviously not the American tax base. Is this proof that the Pentagon is beholden to foreign interests, and that the War on Terrorism is being run by the meglomaniacal central bankers?

"According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions," Rumsfeld admitted.

Well I'm convinced that Rumsfeld is actually just a pawn, Condoleeza Rice otherwise known as the CONDI-NATOR is definitely calling the shots.

Easy question: The money is printed by a printing press. Or created simply through overnight market operations. Basically, it comes out of thin air (a.k.a. a mixture of cotton and wood pulp).
