FEDERAL TRUST FUNDS
As of 4-30-2001
Government Account Series—Intragovernmental Holdings
These are the accounts that hold nothing but "special obligation nonmarketable Treasury bonds" that add to the national debt and can only be redeemed by taking money from the General Fund Treasury income tax receipts. Read and weep. They represent future taxes that you or your children will pay.
