Do Politicians have a clue? DEMAND BETTER!! | |||||||||||||
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 a live. 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?? |

REMEMBER It's YOUR money they are spending! Maybe it's time we think about the two party's we have now and give someone else a chance. I sure don't think our country can get much worse than it has been the past 10 or more years. Can another party shake up big goverment and get it on track? We need to give the smaller party's a chance. Listen to all the canadates and VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! I am not endorsing this canadate, but give him a chance to be heard, Don't let the media tell us what we should hear! http://www.ronpaul2008.com/ |
