The media reports the wars in ME will soon cost 450 billion taxpayer dollars, and rising.
Most American's won't gross 1 million in their lifetime, nor can they comprehend what one billion represents let alone more.
So to understand how much $450 billion really is, here's the math: a person working 40 hours a week for 50 weeks a year for 45 years would have to earn 5 million an hour to earn $450 billion.
Seem like an increase in the minimum is needed to pay for this war.
