What is ONE BILLION DOLLARS?

I had one reader complain about my last post and to "stop whining" about Obama and what the Democratic controlled Congress is doing. Won't happen. When the USA Constitution and freedoms are being attacked and ignored, no American can remain silent. Pro or Con for the initiatives or Bills being passed. So, if you don't care for truths as verified by National sources, read something else or go watch a Soap.

All this talk about "stimulus packages" and "bailouts"...



A billion dollars...

A hundred billion dollars...

Eight hundred billion dollars...

One TRILLION dollars...



What does that look like? I mean, these various numbers are tossed around like so many dogie treats, so I thought I'd try to get a sense of what exactly a trillion dollars looks like.

We'll start with a $100 dollar bill. Currently the largest U.S. denomination in general circulation. Most everyone has seen them, slightly fewer have owned them. Guaranteed to make friends wherever they go.


A packet of one hundred $100 bills is less than 1/2" thick and contains $10,000. Fits in your pocket easily and is more than enough for week or two of shamefully decadent fun.

Believe it or not, this next little pile is $1 million dollars (100 packets of $10,000). You could stuff that into a grocery bag and walk around with it.

While a measly $1 million looked a little unimpressive, $100 million is a little more respectable. It fits neatly on a standard pallet...


And $1 BILLION dollars... now we're really getting somewhere...



Next we'll look at ONE TRILLION dollars. This is that number we've been hearing so much about. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it's a million million. It's a thousand billion. It's a one followed by 12 zeros,
$1,000,000,000,000.

You ready for this?

It's pretty surprising.


Go ahead...

Scroll down... Ladies and gentlemen...
I give you $1 trillion dollars...
Notice those pallets are double stacked. Did you notice the man? ...and remember those are $100 bills. So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about.


(Source Unknown)
The Congressional Stimulus Package already passed is $787 Billion that equates to $1,300 per year in new taxes per household. (Washington Post)
The proposed Healthcare Reform Bill estimates from the Obama Administration will be $1 trillion. The Bacaus Healthcare Bill reduces that to $856 Billion. That translates to $1500 in new taxes to every household every year. (Fox News)
One trillion six hundred thirty two billion in new spending with only two bills. $2,800 in new annual taxes per household. Cut that in half for individuals. And if Congress passes "Cap and Trade" our utilities expense will increase, by some estimates, 30%.
I cannot afford to be stimulated any further.

THE New Grand Wizard

President Barack Hussein Obama is lynching the American public with lies and false propaganda. Much, I suspect, he is ignorant of the facts or, more likely, turns a bias eye away.

Much like the KKK has racial bias toward elements of humanity, the President and the other left have political bias against the American people. How else do they explain the stimulus package that will guarantee a tax increase for all wage earners. How else can they explain that the new "health package" will be competitive or that 80c on the dollar will go to fund UAW medical plan or that illegal immigrants have the right to health care.

How can the liberals that claim they are the voice of the people when they are victimizing, raping and polarizing the American people in the name of something greater.

It sounds like the mantra of the KKK and their mission of the "new Messiah".
