1398 Obama - Debt

On January 20 Mr. Obama will inherit $10.65 trillion US debt.

• The U.S. debt is 10.6 trillion dollars. A $1,000 dollar stack of 1$ bills is 4 1/3 inches high. Start stacking the U.S. debt in 1$ bills, you could start on the moon, stack 'em to the earth, keep stacking back to the moon then stack back to earth, then stack em from Denver, Colorado to Sydney, Australia and you'd still have $20 billion chump change left over. Of course, you might need the 20 billion cause if you stacked 'em at the rate of $1,000 per second, it would still take you 337 years.
