Re:Level3 is without peer, now what to do? by criley2 on Wednesday May 21, 2014 @11:23AM (#7778712)
Let me just point out that $500 billion is larger than the entire yearly non-defense discretionary budget of the US, itself the largest discretionary budget of any government.

>But criley2, how do we spend trillions if $500B is larger than our budget

Discretionary budget, not mandatory spending like social security or welfare.

$500B is an enormous sum of money, it truly is.

$500B/10Y would still be an incredibly large sum subject to an incredible amount of corruption and graft...
