\(\displaystyle For \ what \ it \ is \ worth \ dept.:\)

\(\displaystyle If \ one \ was \ to \ count \ to \ a \ million \ and \ every \ second \ was \ a \ digit, \ then \ it \ would\)

\(\displaystyle take \ a \ little \ under \ 12 \ days \ non-stop \ to \ accomplish \ this \ feat.\)

\(\displaystyle However, \ using \ the \ same \ method \ as \ above \ it \ would \ take \ an \ individual \ a \ little\)

\(\displaystyle under \ 32 \ years \ to \ count \ to \ a \ billion.\)

\(\displaystyle Now, \ here \ is \ where \ it \ gets \ nasty.\)

\(\displaystyle If \ one \ was \ to \ count \ to \ a \ trillion \ (every \ second \ a \ counting \ number), \ it \ would \ take\)

\(\displaystyle one \ a \ little \ under \ 32,000 \ years. \ Our \ country \ is \ now \ in \ debt \ to \ the \ grand \ sum \ of\)

\(\displaystyle 13 \ trillion, \ ergo \ 13 \ times \ 32,000 \ equals \ over \ 400,000 \ years \ in \ counting \ time \ (non-stop).\)

\(\displaystyle Now, \ I \ ask \ you, \ are \ we \ doomed \ or \ what?\)

\(\displaystyle I, \ myself, \ am \ in \ my \ "golden \ years", \ so \ maybe \ my \ demise \ will \ come \ before \ the \ deluge\)

\(\displaystyle \ (Marie \ Antoinette \ anybody);however, \ our \ children \ are \ going \ to \ be \ in \ for \ a \ very \ rough \ awakening\)

\(\displaystyle if \ something \ or \ somebody \ doesn't \ stop \ this \ run-away \ spending \ by \ those \ who \ "supposedly" \ govern\)

\(\displaystyle us.\)
