The Economic Bailout

How much is $700 billion dollars? Those who know me well, know that I like to measure things with the almighty Chipotle burrito.

The math has been done and ... $700 billion dollars is over 127 billion burritos. The population of American being ~350 million, that's ~360 burritos per person.
Which means -- that's enough burritos for everyone in America to have 1 per day for an entire year.


In short: that's a lot of burritos.
