Tax hidden by global super-rich worth at least $21 trillion...
A global super-rich elite had at least $21 trillion hidden in secret tax havens by the end of 2010...

Hmmmm what's this doing on MSM?

The figure is equivalent to the size of the US and Japanese economies combined.

The Price of Offshore Revisited was written by James Henry, a former chief economist at the consultancy McKinsey, and commissioned by the Tax Justice Network.

He said $21tn is a conservative figure and the true scale could be $32tn.

A trillion is 1,000 billion.

McKinsey is a CIA front. This isn't some good-guy ex-employee whistleblower - I reckon this story has been planted big and high so we can all see it for some reason.

Hmmm thought as much... Story put out because "desperate times call for desperate measures" I suppose... Looks like no-one is safe...
