My, how time flies.
If you lined up 999 billionaires, each of whom is worth $1 billion, their combined wealth STILL would not equal a trillion dollars!
If all the girls at Vassar were laid end to end, I wouldn’t be surprised.
The US national debt is high treason.
* A million seconds is 13 days.
* A billion seconds is 31 years.
* A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.
Catastrophic fiscal malpractice in Washington D.C.
Neither would I, but I'd like to see the film. ;)
1) Obama's idiotic "Stimulus "
2) Bush's stupid big government No Child Left Behind debacle & Homeland Security bloat.
3) Obama's CommieObamieCare isn't counted in that mutitrillion $ deficti yet is it?
What else? What do these add up to? It didn't take long for these idiots to rack all this up. We should be able to nuke all this crap out of existence fairly quickly as well, it seems to me.
I have not done the math but I ‘spect that a 50 megawatt power plant could burn dollars and loose.
Nice way to explain it.
If you spent 1 MILLION dollars a day — A DAY, if you went back to the birth of Christ you would be at 3/4 of a trillion dollars. You have to go back to the Battle of Thermopylae to get to a single trillion (reminder - at 1 million a day).
Now, 13 trillion, at 1 million dollars a day would be 13 times that — well before anything even resembling civilization existed...
Dang...
We’re screwed.
You could buy off a lot of corrupt politicians with that kind of money. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that trillions of dollars are floating around Washington DC at a time when government corruption is at astronomical levels. Adding to that we have a fraudster at the top who has a mountain of skeletons in his closet.
Its back to fiefdom, taxpayers are the property of the land barons...
This analogy for the tech savy.
$1 = 1 byte
1000 bytes = kilobyte = $1000
1,000,000 bytes = megabyte = 1 million dollars
1,000,000,000 bytes = gigabyte = 1 billion dollars
1,000,000,000,000 bytes = tetrabyte 1 trillion
Did you mean terabyte?
brainfart..........yes!
Gonna be a hot hot hot summer.....:o)
It would take a military jet flying at the speed of sound, reeling out a roll of dollar bills behind it, 14 years before it reeled out one trillion dollar bills.
Arg!

That pretty much describes the TOTUS-reader’s plan — he will ride his unicorn and send out dollar bills out his tail end until he has bought all the votes he needs...
