“The U.S. Congress, which never ceases to be amazing, recently voted to give the Pentagon $11 billion more than it had asked for. Do you have any idea how much $11 billion is? Of course you don’t. Nobody does. It is not possible to conceive of a sum that large. No matter where you turn with regard to America and its economy you are going to bump into figures that are so large as to be beyond meaningful comprehension.”
