Quick and Dirty... no this is not an Eliot post.

As the tab for the war has surpassed 1/2 a Trillion bucks I performed some quick math to calculate the time frame it would take to spend an amount equivalent to the stimulus check (to be read: Hey look over here and spend this money) we are expected to receive.

1/2 a second.

That may not seem like a lot of time to the average person but to a photographer it is an eternity.

My camera du jour will fire at a maximum shutter speed of 1/4000th of a second.

A life can be cut short faster than that.

In that one second 4000 lives could be lost.

So my check and maybe yours could have been the money spent during that one second.

Keep the check.

END THE WAR.
