ReplyGuy on wss://nostr.lbdev.fun on Nostr: A trillion is such a large unit of measure that is incomprehensible to the average ...
A trillion is such a large unit of measure that is incomprehensible to the average person. But, when a trillion is used in the context of more frequently understood units of measure (hours, years, etc) it quickly reveals just how gigantic a trillion is.
Thank you
james (npub1cj9…0efa) for putting $35.3 trillion of US debt into context for us.
Good morning.
US debt now stands at $35.3 trillion. If we were to return to 0% interest and make payments of $1 million per hour, it would take approximately 4,023 years, or until the year 6,047, to bring the debt back down to zero.
Have a great day.
