the Vatican City is the largest money laundering country in the world. Apparantly it is also a cut-out country, meaning that it is impossible to track the initial transfer beyond the Vatican, once the money has been deposited. The Vatican lawyers say that all deposits made into and out of the Vatican Banks around the world (and they have accounts with all the major banks, and own most of Standard Oil, At&T, plus a few other major multinationals) are pious exchnages, invested in God.
And if you believe that, I am going to be elected the new pope. I guess thats why they are the richest company in the world today. They have offices in every nieghbourhood in every citya round the world, with dues paying members filling their coffers. Their GDP is second only to the US.
