As well as everything else, the thing that really gets me is the amounts of money being talked about. They are stupenduous. 700 BILLION ... ooh let's add 110 BILLION !! Charles Cooper illustrates this so clearly when he suggests “Treasury could spend $700 billion in no time flat and come right back to Congress for $700 billion more”. The actual value of money must lose any meaning when you're talking about and dealing with these kinds of amounts of money everyday. I mean .... never mind 700, Take just 1 Billion. What does $1 Billion buy the taxpayer, then? Cheap trinkets?
