Living hell with Boehner

People have difficulty understanding just how big these numbers are.

Here are some images from Eames' powers of 10 film.

People should try to put a $17,000,000,000,000.00 debt or a $1,100,000,000,000 budget in perspective.

One	100	1.	"ten to the zero"
ten	101	10.	"ten to the one"
hundred	102	100.	"ten to the two"
thousand	103	1,000.	"ten to the three"
ten thousand	104	10,000.	"ten to the four"
hundred thousand	105	100,000.	"ten to the five"
million	106	1,000,000.	"ten to the six"
ten million	107	10,000,000.	"ten to the seven"
hundred million	108	100,000,000.	"ten to the eight"
billion	109	1,000,000,000.	"ten to the nine"
ten billion	1010	10,000,000,000.	"ten to the ten"
hundred billion	1011	100,000,000,000.	"ten to the eleven"
trillion	1012	1,000,000,000,000.	"ten to the twelve"
ten trillion	1013	10,000,000,000,000.	"ten to the thirteen"

Laws should be short and understandable by a Middle School student.

Any law which is 1000 pages long is just social engineering by bureaucrats who want to do what they want to do and are depending on some badly written document to provide cover for their expensive schemes.

Been trying to find the final vote for the House by name on the internet and can’t locate it. Really need to know which of the Texas delegation voted for it and which voted against. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Well at least they saved $8 billion by screwing the Veterans pensions. Lets give them some credit. :-)
