In reality, the money in the US are stored in few pockets, I would say 
of the owners of the US (and maybe the world). If all these money 
suddenly got to the market, the country will collapse immediately. The 
owners naturally understand it and keep these excessive money in their 
trunks. They emit only a reasonable amount of money when they do 
something with the economy.

In other words those money that they don't spend are the money that make 
the US economy healthy and prevent the US from collapsing.

The owners do have money, but actually big part of their money are not 
valid. They know it well. They know actually their money worth little. 
It, BTW, is the reason of many crazy deals we see now -- they can buy a 
footballer from each other for 50 million dollars and more. They pay 
with money of no worth. It is their game.

Bye, Bob!
