David Dejewski November 12th, 2009 Excellent question, Sam. To me it looks like 1/62 of the debt that this country has written on I.O.U. paper for American entitlement programs. Here’s a cool illustration of what $1 Trillion physically looks like. Multiply that image 64 times and consider what we owe (and have no money to pay for) for Medicare and Social Security. See the recent Senate hearing on the subject and please contribute to the discussion I posted on the subject here.
