a little math

just in case you were wondering:

1,000,000 x 365 = 365,000,000

365,000,000 x 2009 = 733,285,000,000

787,000,000,000 - 733,285,000,000 = 53,715,000,000


Therefore, if the US government spent:

1 million dollars a day

every day since Christ

it would still be less than what was just approved for the stimulus bill.


close to $54 billion less.

awesome. go government.

this is an irrelevant equation because:
a) the U.S.A. hasn't existed since Jesus Walked
b) this doesn't, at all, account for inflation, and if someone spent one million "dollas" in, say, 315 A.D., the $54 billion difference would be wiped OUT
c) there are a lot of commas, which makes my eyes spaz out when looking at the comp screen...
d) this comment is completely irrelevant, because of all the things i am, i am least of which an economic analyst
