That's good. I had a teacher in Jr. High who talked about the debt and said it would never be repaid. To demonstrate she proposed that anyone who would write out in notebooks from 1 to a million would receive an automatic "A" in her class. Most started writing... a few days later she provived the figures on how many tablets, how many hours, how many pens ect. I remember it was something to the effect, If you never slept, just continued to write you could not have reached a million by the end of the trimester. This was back when a billion was real money and a trillion was only used in terms of space/stars.

That's intersting, and a little scary
