The kid is spot on. 100 mil isn't even a fly speck on the windshield compared to the 100's of billions. 1 bil is 1000 mil. It is pretty easy to do the math if one takes the time. Too bad most who see the news do not have a clue on this.
I, for one, have no concept of what these amounts of money look like, this little presentation sort of gives you a perspective IMHO.
It's a shit load aint it??????

George Will wrote a column at the time (almost 2 yrs. ago) laughing at this.
"Obama ordered 15 department heads to find economies totaling $100 million, which was then 13 minutes (0.0029 percent) of federal spending."
When politicians act like the planet will explode if we spend "only" $3 trillion, please laugh at them. Maybe spit on them. I implore you not to take them seriously. Btw, that video says of entitlements, "O couldn't cut them even if he wanted to." Guess what? They have to be cut.:|err
