To start with lets calculate
this out: The Total spent or promised at this moment is $10,189,000,000,000 or $10.189 Trillion
Lets
say we want to pay this back at $1 Million Dollars per minute. We 1st have to divide by $1 Million
.
$10,189,000,000,000
/ $1,000,000 = 10,189,000 minutes.
.
Now lets divide by 60 minutes to see how many hours.
.
10,189,000
/ 60 = 169,816.6666666666 hours.
.
Now lets divide by 24 hours to see how many days.
.
169,816.6666666666
/ 24 = 7,075.69444444 days.
.
Now dive by 365 to see how many years.
.
7,075.6944444
/ 365 = 19.38546 years.
.
So really not so bad when you
think about it!
.
So lets budget that! $1 Million
dollars a minute for 19.4 years to pay this back. If this money would have been used to pay off peoples mortgages which would
have saved the banks etc. It would have payed off approximately 90% of the mortgages in the United States. 100% if you exclude
homes over $500,000.
This is all presuming of course we have no natural catastrophes, no
terrorist bombings, no more economic problems, and no wars to fight. That reminds me about our unguarded borders with Mexico.
Besides the Mexicans that are caught every month crossing our border with Mexico there is also an average of 12 middle easterners
per month caught as well. Make of it what you will.
