US: Fed gives banks 20B, with a B

Ok, not to be exceptionally naive or anything but...where the f--- does the FED get all this money? We can't subsidize gas prices, we can't get rid of homeless, we can't lower school costs, we can't lower medical expenses, we can't figure out new sources of energy, we can't lower taxes, we can't give states more assistance, we can't really raise minimum wage.....

BUT


we can drop another 70B on Iraq and 20B to the banks......glad we pull these funds out of our collective @sses.

Rant over.
