I posted this November 2005! Someone (Tavia, I think) left a comment in July 2011 (see below) - Interesting!

President Bush sent Congress a proposal for the $2.57 trillion federal budget. And, the United States is in debt by a staggering EIGHT trillion dollars. Just how much is that, anyway? How long would it take to count to just ONE trillion? You couldn't count to one trillion in your lifetime, no matter how old you are now. The answer: It would take 31,700 years to count to ONE trillion. That's THIRTY-ONE THOUSAND, SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS!

Funny, Violet is just five now and weve almost doubled the debt since she was born.
