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’ Â 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 it’s  releases.A.
A Â billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B.
A Â billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.
A Â billion hours ago our ancestors were
Living in the Stone  Age.D.
A Â billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E.
A Â billion Pounds ago was only
13 hours and 12 minutes,
At  the rate our government
Is spending it.

And  Mum stayed home to raise the kids.
