two men arrested with suitcase with $134,000,000,000

One of the first reports that came out of AsiaNews claims that the men were carrying 'Federal Reserve Bonds' with a face value of half a billion dollars each. As we know, there are no federal reserve bonds, only notes, which are commonly referred to as paper money.

What are you getting at?

the original speculation was that the federal reserve was printing bonds illegally and under the radar.

That they are fake.

Ah, my bad. This point flew over my head - I would have just assumed someone was just using "notes" and "bonds" interchangeably... as many do in the lending world.

Carry on, nothing to see here (except the comp on CC's lunch, if anyone can quantify it)
