Figures can trick your eyes.
Take particular note that items 2, 3, 5, and 7 reflect BILLION not millions of
Dollars --
And that item 3 exceeds one-third of a TRILLION dollars.
Can you imagine how much it will cost taxpayers if we triple the number of?
Illegal's entering this country!!
So, What's in a Billion?.......
Granted................. this is from the US!
The next time you hear a politician use the word "billion" in a casual manner, think about whether you want the "politicians" spending your tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of its releases.
> A. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
>
> B. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
>
> C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
>
> D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
>
> E. A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it.
While this thought is still fresh in our brain, let's take a look at New
Orleans. It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division . .
Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the Congress for $250 BILLION to rebuild New Orleans. Interesting number, what does it mean?
> A. Well, if you are one of 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man, woman, child), y ou each get $516,528.
> B. Or, if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans, your home gets $1,329,787.
> C. Or, if you are a family of four, your family gets $2,066,012.
Washington, DC. .... HELLO!!! ... Are all your calculators broken??
This is too true.........And these numbers don't lie.........and, it's not funny!!!
