You know, to explain the national debt... Here's our first lesson, "trillion" in Chinese. 万亿 (wànyì), just so you know, one trillion would be yi wànyì, two would be lyang wànyì, three trillion would be san wànyì, but I know, we need to be able to say 20 trillion and that is ershr (arshir would be how it is pronounced) wànyì. You can get Chinese lessons from Rosetta Stone which happens to be a company headquartered just north of us. ;-D
