$1 Trillion & US Debt in Physical $100 bills [2:10]I heard that if you had a stack of $100.00 dollar bills that equaled 1 trillion dollars, the stack would be 62 miles high! Or, if you paid back a loan at 1 dollar a second it would take 31.7 years to pay back 1 billion dollars... or 31,700 years to pay back 1 trillion dollars.

$2 Billion NSA Utah Data Center, also known as the Intelligence Community Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative Data Center
Ever wonder how fast the computer is in the NSA Utah Data Center: it can do 27,000 trillion calculations a second.
Ever wonder what 42 trillion file cabinets stacked together would look like?
According to a report by NPR, the NSA data center in Utah will be capable of saving 5 Zettabytes (5 billion Terabyte). Assuming that a filing cabinet with 60 files (30,000 pages of paper) uses up 0.4 m2, which would correspond to 120 MB of data, the printed out Utah data center would use up 17 million square kilometers.

Jesse Ventura -- Conspiracy Theory
I like Jesse Ventura's videos because they raise a lot of questions that we the public might never think about. I think the show also does a
good job of answering the raised questions, but I also think we the public can do our own research and draw our own conclusions. Thus, use
these as a starting point.
