The budget deficit – like a shot of Jack Daniels

TOPICS:

Posted By: Michael Vass March 18, 2011

We recently checked back on our favorite political math analysis guru, 10000Pennies on Youtube. He has a knack for making the bloated and absurd national deficit visually intelligible for the rest of us thayt actually learned math in school (apparently unlike politicians).

Once again the national budget will raise the national deficit to heights that make the word astronomical seem just that much smaller. Truely the only other place numbers so large are discuss so frequently is by astrophysicist’s. Try as we have, there are few ways that such a large set of numbers can be made reasonable to the average American. But, 10000Pennies has hit the mark again.
