A trillion here, a trillion there and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

When George W. Bush entered office, the national debt was $5 trillion. When he left, it was $10 trillion. I think the administration spent too much money.

A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.

We are spending $1 billion a week in Iraq.

Reliable numbers about the amount of dirty money around the world are difficult to come by. But according to an estimate by the nonprofit Global Financial Integrity group, $1 trillion vanishes from the developing world's economies every year.

America is not better off than it was $1.8 trillion dollars ago.

Before we give you billions more, we want to know what you've done with the trillion you've got.

Trillions of dollars are being spent in the name of 'saving' the economy: bailouts, 'stimulus,' omnibus spending bills, budgets, government takeovers of the auto, health care and energy industries, all of which require ever more spending.

It took the first 204 years of our Nation's history to accumulate $1 trillion in debt. And now we are doing that every 2 or 3 years.
