Yeah seriously, $Billions and $Trillions are too common in the media to have the impact they should have.

This one headline is discussing an investment of $110,000 MILLION Dollars. That's enough to let an entire football stadium (either US version or everybody else version) of people retire tomorrow.

40 years of 100,000 people working $15 an hour would just barely make that much. Before taxes. And unpaid sick time. Of course. Sorry to be US-centric but we seem to be leading the way in this whole Road To Dystopia thing.
