How Much is a Billion to Politicians?

It seems there is no end to what the Washington politician will do to take money from productive people - the real problem though is most of these hard working people don't know or understand what is happening, or they just don't care - their horizons are too low to catch the big picture.

When they wake up to reality it may be too late - the problem will be out of their reach -

Watch and listen closely to Hillary and the other liberals in this election, they are predicting the future of the country and it will come true if you vote for them - it's fact!

But keep the faith - the battle is joined -


- -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), you
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, D.C .. HELLO!!! ... Are all your calculators broken??

Their calculators aren't broken in the least - they are using them to calculate how much they can steal while we aren't looking.
