I have tried to explain several times in my blogs the huge huge huge difference between a million, a billion and a trillion. They sound so much alike, but they are not even close. You have to be able to comprehend these numbers to realize the federal and state deficits.
Recently President Obama said that he was going to trim $100 million of "fat and waste" out of the federal budget. Well this video really shows how insignificant that amount is when compared to the total annual budget. This does not even include the federal debt, just the annual expenditures.
Take a look.
