What you could do with $700,000,000,000

• Give every person in the US $2,300 or give every household $6,200.
• Pay the income taxes of every American who makes $500,000 or less a year.
• Fully fund the Defense, Treasure, Education, State Veterans Affairs and Interior departments next year, as well as NASA.
• Buy gasoline for every car in the US for 16 months.
• Buy every NFL, NBA, and MLB team and build each one a new stadium - and pay your players $191 million a piece for a year
• Create the 17th largest economy in the world - roughly equal to that of the Netherlands.
• Or you could pay off just 7% of the $9.8 trillion national debt. (via Time)

OR you could nationalize some mortgage related debt (aka “impaired assets”) that banks, credit unions, and pension funds hold. Using our tax dollars, of course.
