Think about this:
A million dollars fits into a nice briefcase.
A Billion is 1000 million. It takes 10 million $100 bills to make a Billion dollars.
The picture represents a Billion dollars in $100 bills.
A Billion is 1/1000 of a Trillion.
And we’re about to have Trillion dollar deficits every year, 10 years out!
And the ONLY thing they can find in the budget “worthy” of cuts? DEFENSE – in a post 9/11 world where Iran and North Korea will be nuclear VERY soon.
Scared yet?
