Staggering!

If someone spent 1 million dollars EVERY DAY since Christ was born in 1 A.D. they would not have spent the amount of money being proposed in the “spending plan.”

1 million dollars a day since 1 A.D. = $733,285,000, 000.

That's staggering! Of course, it's not "real" money anymore...everything is fiat these days, but I don't know if that makes the whole package more or less... staggering. We're dealing with huge amounts of essentially fake money... is that crazier, or better, because it's not actually physically "real?"

Some things to think about...
