How many zeros in 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 dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes.
at the rate our government is spending it.
