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 doggie treats, so I thought I’d take Google Sketchup out for a test drive and 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, slighty 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 about so much. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it’s a million million. It’s a thousand billion. It’s a one followed by 12 zeros.

You ready for this?

It’s pretty surprising.

Go ahead…

Scroll down…

Ladies and gentlemen… I give you $1 trillion dollars…

(And notice those pallets are double stacked.)

So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase “trillion dollars”… that’s what they’re talking about.

Now you multiply that by at least 4 for all the bailouts, porkulus, and Universal Health Care, PLUS another 90 times that pictured for Social Security and Medicare ALONE and now you know how much money the U.S. Government is going to take out of your earnings, your children’s earnings and your grandchildren’s earnings.  Now add the Cap-and-Trade taxes, due to the SHAM - – B.S. of “Global Warming” that has been brainwashed and programmed into our minds, on every single product and service you pay for and on the heat, light and electricity you use and the gasoline you use to get to work, if you are lucky enough to even have a job. What are you going to tell your grandchildren why you, a FREE man or woman, who has control over our Government by way of the LAWS of The Constitution, to get away with this?  What are you going to do about it?

Why are we allowing the U.S. Government and The Federal Reserve company to turn us into Socialist / Communist / Fascist slaves living in the pigsty of the equal distribution of misery in poverty?

You do not have long to think about this.  You better think quickly and do something about this before it is too late.  There is not much time left before our U.S. Government corrupts absolutely in absolute power.
