In 2001, the United States Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, famously said in an interview on CBS that he had discovered approximately 2.3 trillion dollars missing from the previous military budget. Let that sink in for just a moment. 2.3 trillion dollars missing from the past budget. The next day, the 9/11 attacks were carried out, and Mr. Rumsfeld, who vowed to find those missing funds, never publicly mentioned them again. Where could those trillions have gone? The answer is anywhere.....and that's the scary part.
