1. Woooooow................

that's the size of a skyscraper :wow:

[givemebackmycountry]

2. I guess in the last image, Bush and Cheney took walking around money off the top.

And, I don't need to point out what that last image reminds me of.

3. and here I stop sometimes to pick up a penny.

4. Holy crap

!!

15. The irony is that the last building looks like 1 of the WTC towers...

somehow, it's fitting.

[Selatius]

17. It's as painful as it is fitting. I wouldn't use any other image to depict that kind of cash. nt

22. Funny, long before 9/11 I thought of the NY skyscrapers...

as stacks of casino chips. Volume there is literally money, they embody the accumulated capital of the imperial city.

5. That is awesome, where did you find it? k+r, n/t

23. A site called Crunch Web

(Yeah, I know the link says $87 Billion - but they expanded it)

6. so that 365 million that disappeared from the Iraq Provisional Authority

is slightly larger than a volkswagon and smaller than a Honda Accord. If you were born prior to 1955, remember thinking how large a million dollars was?

10. Remember in _Austin Powers,_,

when Dr. Evil gets laughed at for demanding a million dollars in ransom to refrain from destroying the world?

7. the last pic gives us an indication of the size of cheney's bunker

8. Sending this to my father...

9. $315 Billion could buy every tax paying citizen a Cadillac CTS sedan.

[4 t 4]

11. Wow great visual

give the second 350 billion to the people not the banks. I don't care anymore if it comes out to $1,000 a person I need it now. How about you guys ?

[Initech]

12. Fuck yeah!

[Festivito]

13. It's also a $1,000 per American, $4,000 for a family of four.

Just under a form 1040, in dollars that is, for 303-million Americans.

How much is your family's part?

[Ichingcarpenter]

14. What the bailout really looks like

Its all electronic money anyway, you think they really printed
the bailout money especially after I showed you what it would take to house that much money?

[leftstreet]

16. ouch

:thumbsup:

[lonestarnot]

18. 1 WTC

[OhioChick]

19. You should've compared it to one of the financial buildings (AIG, etc.) n/t

[Usrename]

20. What does 363 tons of cash look like?
