       I was reading somewhere the other day, it costs taxpayers $1.4 billion a year to fund the White House. The way money figures are tossed around today, especially in 'free wheeling--spending like drunken sailors,' Washington D.C., that figure might not have much of an impact on you--that is--until you actually SEE what just a billion dollars looks like:

One Billion Dollars $1,000,000,000.
