I found it so amazing to see where we are at and what is possible today. The one sentence that struck me most is the view-changing statement of one of the guys in this clip. He points out that evolution brought us so far, but who says it is the end of the line…. Made me ponder and see things in a completely different light….

114.5 Trillion Dollars
$114,500,000,000,000. - US unfunded liabilities
To the right you can see the pillar of cold hard $100 bills that dwarfs the
WTC & Empire State Building - both at one point world’s tallest buildings.
If you look carefully you can see the Statue of Liberty.

The 114.5 Trillion dollar super-skyscraper is the amount of money the U.S. Government
knows it does not have to fully fund the Medicare, Medicare Prescription Drug Program,
social security, military and civil servant pensions. It is the money USA knows it will not
have to pay all its bills.

The unfunded liability is calculated on current tax and funding inputs, and future demographic
shifts in US Population.


Note: On the above 114.5T image the size of the base of the money pile is half a trillion, not 1 trillion as on 15 trillion image.
The height is double. This was done to reflect the base of Empire State and WTC more closely.
