honestly.....same as right now. it would just mean that pharmaceuticals like bayer and others will be astronomically wealthy instead of absurdly wealthy. now if it was open for competition that cant be patented but owned by the government investment for all canadians - thats an interesting thought.

How far ? Well a trillion is = 1,000 billion
imagine a stack of $100 bills 18" high, that is $1 million
$1 billion is a stack 1500 feet tall
$1 trillion is 1000 of those stacks
boggling

Don't let JT get his hands on it. It would disappear in a flash and then be added to Canada's debt load one way or the other! [icon_lol2.gif]

Instead of spending it on medical research it would be far better to spend it on condoms and other types of contraception as well as education on how to use them.
The fastest way to save humanity and the planet is to drastically reduce reproduction.

Agreed. Before we throw bales of our taxpayer cash and cargos of food into third world overpopulated countries, stipulate that vasectomies are needed in fair exchange.

If we still had dollar bills and they were the same length as today's bills (6" long), and we scotch taped the bills together at the ends, forming one long ribbon, $10-trillion would:

- encircle earth's equator 24901 times
- stretch from earth to the moon, 4197 times
- stretch from earth to Mars 28 times
- stretch from earth to the sun 10 times
- stretch from earth to Saturn 1.2 times

I wish I hadn't seen this post. There's 20 minutes of my life gone figuring that out, that I won't get back. :-X
