The Paola Kansas

Public School Endowment Association

.

According to Wikipedia, the  small community of Paola Kansas,  with a population of only 5,000 people, set up a Public School Endowment Association in 1986.    That endowment now has assets of about two million dollars and the endowment produces about $110,000 per year for education in that community.   That's a rate of return of about eighteen percent.

What Social Security Was Supposed to Be.   

.

.

If Social Security  had been properly managed, today, the public would have a 40 trillion dollar asset.   Instead, we presently have a 40 trillion dollar debt.   

Imagine for a moment that that investment fund 
actually existed today.   

Imagine that Social Security had that forty-trillion-dollar investment portfolio.   Imagine that  investment making only a meager two and one-half percent annual interest.  Even at that ridiculously low rate of return, the return on investment would be a trillion dollars a year in free and clear money that would be available for retired Americans.   That's about double what is currently (2005)  being paid to Social Security recipients.   There are about 48 million benefit recipients.   Even at that extremely low, two-and-one-half percent rate of return, payments from profits would average over $20,000 per year per person.   

Endowment funds on average make about eleven percent return on the invested money.   Imagine the 40 trillion dollar Social Security investment making only seven and one-half percent return.  The would give each retiree, $60,000 per year per person.   That's about six times  what is currently (2005)  being paid to Social Security recipients,  and, unlike today, not one nickel of that money would be coming from taxes.

Brazil  -- South America  

.

In the financial fiasco that hit its crisis point in august 2008, one country stands out today, January 2011.   That country is Brazil, South America.   While the rest of the world in a deep recession, brazils economy is booming,   and we want to know why.   We want to know what made the difference?  The answer to that question is critical to understanding:

   How a country's economy can be manipulated
        by those who control its monetary system, 

   How we are not victims of "The Money Devil."

   How  The Powers That Be  set us up for a major financial rip-off, and

   How we were suckered into going along down the road
         to national bankruptcy.
