How much money is One Trillion Dollars?


$1,000,000,000,000.00


When trying to comprehend a trillion-dollars of new government spending, you might calculate how much money that represents per person in the U.S.

One trillion dollars divided by 300 million Americans comes out to:

$3,333 per American.

------------------------------

A million seconds is about 11½ days.
A billion seconds is about 32 years.
A trillion seconds is 32,000 years.

------------------------------

One trillion stacked one dollar bills would reach 68,000 miles, one-third of the way to moon.

------------------------------

If you spent $1 million a day since Jesus birth, you still wouldn't have gone through $1 trillion dollars today.

------------------------------

The national debt is now topping $11 Trillion,
next add in the $700 billion bank rescue
and the Obama/Pelosi/Reid One Trillion Dollar Pork Barrel Package ...

And that Ladies & Gentlemen equals 13 Trillion Dollars we owe the Federal Government.


Or $43,329 for every man, woman and child.


------------------------------


Thirteen Trillion Dollars ... a terrible thing to waste.
