America, I turn to Tony Robbins to tell you how big your problem is. Our natiion deficit is $15.4 trillion. How much is a trillion? Well, a million seconds would take 12 days, a billion seconds about 32 years, and a trillion seconds would take almost 32,000 years.
So, pay off a dollar every second and it will take 32,000 years to pay off a trillion. I wonder if any of us will still be around when we times that by 15.4 to pay off the whole of our national debt.
Listen to Tony's video, if you like. Tony, in turn, calls on Iowahawk to help us see how large our debt is.
