Our national debt is now hovering at $22 trillion, but many of us don’t know how much that really is. So, look at it this way: it takes 1,000 one-thousand-dollar bills to total $1 million; then multiply that million by 1,000 to total $1 billion, then multiply that billion by 1,000 to total $1 trillion. Just one example of the massive amount of money we’re dealing with: somehow spend $1 million every single day from the birth of Christ (about 2,000 years) to our current time and we’d still be well short of $1 trillion.
