Um, "roughly"? *"Approximately"? *Those words seem to signal a formula rather
than an amount and bureaucrats and accounting don't seem to play together well:

"Lessee here...the bank book shows we have $19,264,234,094.04 USD, so that means
we can spend hundreds and hundreds of billions...because we still have checks!"

This is really getting worse and worse, and I ain't talking about the oil,
turtles, pelicans, or even a Cajun walrus...

"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?"
"I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear."

Funny. Unfortunately, it isn't that cut and, um, dried...or not dried, as the
