The news is saying that Obama plans to cut 17 billion dollars from his 3.4 trillion dollar budget. Well, that sounds like a lot of money, and it is, but it's a flea on the tail of the total budget.
It amounts to 1/2 of 1%.
That's 0.5% or 0.005 in decimal form.
It would be like a family that earns $50,000 cutting out $250 from their budget.
Don't get fooled by the all the zeros. It's chump change to the government!
