<blockquote><p style="margin: 0.4em 0px 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><i><b>"We've got a real problem! This is a mathematical fact! Tens of trillions of dollars are being extracted from the United States of America. Democrats aren't doing it, Republicans aren't doing it. An entire integrated system, financial system, trading system, taxing system, that was created by both parties over a period of two decades is at work on our entire country right now. And we're sitting here arguing about whether we should do the $4 trillion plan that kicks the can down the road for the president for 2017, or burn the place to the ground, both of which are reckless, irresponsible, and stupid."</b></i><sup style="line-height: 1em; font-style: normal;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dylan_Ratigan#cite_note-7" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173); white-space: nowrap;" target="_blank"><span>[</span>8<span>]</span></a></sup></p>
