Understanding the meaning of a Billion !!

The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner,

think about Whether you want the 'politicians' spending

YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,

But one advertising agency did a good job of

Putting that figure into some perspective in One of its releases.

A

A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B.

A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C.

A billion hours ago our ancestors were Living in the Stone Age.


D.

A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.


E.


A billion Pounds ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes,

At the rate our government Is spending it.

And Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
