this is a pretty bad picture but the tallest building is actually 114.5trillion dollars in stacked $100 bills. Its a shit load of money and how much the US owes in unfunded liabilities.
It is the amount of money the U.S. Government
knows it does not have to fully fund the Medicare, Medicare Prescription Drug Program,
Social Security, Military and civil servant pensions. It is the money USA knows it will not
have to pay all its bills.
The shortest one next to it is actually 15 trillion dollars and is the US national Debt (personal debt including credit cards, mortgage and consumer) though its actually 16 billion now
here are some fun facts
$ 176,063 - debt per US citizen
$ 668,096 - debt per US family
311 953 103 - US population
111 901 415 - number of US tax payers
anyway, i found this pretty crazy. i just dont get why people still spend like crazy when they're in debt and why they find it so hard to save their monies. Im probs just being azn tho
check out usdebtclock.org to see the debt in real time
