Not Hard To Understand

Lets take a look at America's 2011's budget numbers:


U.S. Income: $2,170,000,000,000


Federal budget: $3,820,000,000,000


New debt: $1,650,000,000,000


National debt: $14,271,000,000,000


Recent budget cut: $38,500,000,000



OK, got it ? Now, let's simplify this and remove the 9 zeros.


Here's Mr. Citizen's budget
