Even for the US Treasury, this is REAL money . . . .

Wanted to get my arms around the bailout figure of $700 Billion.

Current figure for students enrolled in degree-granting institutions of higher learning this year, about 18 million. For the $700 Billion, we could give each one of them a new BMW for an enrollment incentive.

We have about 17,500 students total at HACC. Each of them could spend over $100,000 each day for the next year, and then they each would still have $3,500,000 to put into the bank for a rainy day.

If one of the first Pharaohs of Egypt were to have remained alive since his reign, he could have spent $ 250,000 each and every day since, and would still have enough to support his spending habit for another 3,200 years.
