In his latest article, former Assistant Treasury Secretary Dr. Paul Craig Roberts says, "The Fed is the great deceiver." Why is he making this shocking accusation? The reason is tiny Belgiums whopping purchase of $141 billion in Treasury bonds earlier this year. Dr. Roberts explains, "We know that Belgium didnt have any money to buy $141 billion worth of bonds over a three month period. That sum comes to 29% of the Belgium GDP. So, they dont have a surplus in their budget that is 29% of their GDP, and they dont have trade or current account surplus in that amount. In fact, everything is in the red. Their budget deficit is in the red, and their trade and current accounts are in the red. So, Belgium didnt have the money, and yet, they managed to pick up $141.2 billion in U.S. Treasuries over a three month period. So, where did they get the money?"
