A client recently forwarded a series of great video episodes to us from Chris Martenson, showcasing his crash course video series which can be found in it’s entirety here. I wanted to highlight one of the chapters, which puts some perspective to the word “trillion”, and how surprisingly hard it is for most people to get a grasp of the scale of the number. This year the US will have north of $10 trillion in debt, forecast to approach $20 trillion by only 2015. Numbers to keep in mind as you watch the video.
