Paste boo-lives writes: Almost all of the US money that's coming in is transferred out of the country to offshore accounts in the channel or jersey islands (near England), and from there into the secret untraceable world of offshore accounts. England may have officially been a demon country for MMY these past years, but he favors their offshore banking havens. The mov't also makes money off of its various businesses, primarily SV buildings, and Settle is giving MUM a million a month, but I think most of that gets spent on operations. You'll wait a long time before anyone is allowed to ask any of the tmo leaders in public what's being done with the $155 million that's been transferred to offshore banking accounts over the past 5 yrs. I assume about half goes to that bizarre spiritual mafia organization known as the Indian TMO and about half gets into individual offshore accounts of TMO leaders. > > > > (Grassley is no hick, he is pretty sharp in fact.) > > Is interesting to see what the committee is after by looking at the > letter sent out copied on the NPR link towards the bottom of this >NPR > text of this segment. >
