French build burial chamber for global Capitalism

As the United Mistakes of America has a mass-debate about whether to give $700 billion to the financial crooks that, in Wall Street speak, "fucked everything up," and while working class men on the street suggest that a far more successful way of kick-starting the economy would be to take that same amount of money and divvy it up between 300 or so million Americans, those cheeky little monkeys over in Red, White and Blue Franceville have decided to cut the crap and build a giant burial chamber for international global capitalism.

True to the one true way of deploying fruity symbolism the new Franco-Nazi tomb for global capitalism borrows heavily from the design of tombs for Egyptian pharoahs that would later manifest themselves on the one true one dollar bill.
