Today I read that the Netherlands total gross (whatevs) state expenditure for the next year will be 200 billion euro. I never knew what the total was that our state spends. it seems like a huuuge figure to me. i mean, we live with about 16 million people here, so if we split the 200 billion, the govt could give each citizen, including babies 12,500 euro's this year.
if i look at it otherwise this would mean it is that amount they took from us in taxes!
oh, i am such an amateur when it comes to economics..

According to wikipedia 200b € is half of NL yearly GDP. Still one knows to be sure about what kind of "billion" were're talking about. A billion in the NL (like in PT) is 1.000.000.000.000.000 (one million million). That's a lot of weewees.
- i said billion in english, there is no word for miljard in english, in dutch a biljoen (as we note a billion) is indeed a million millionjanne76
- million..janne76
- i'm supposing wikipedia uses the short scale.Witt
- so.. what i mean is: tweehonderd miljard. 200,000 million. In dutch notation, a dot instead of a comma: 200.000 miljoen.janne76
- 200.000 miljoen.janne76
- 200 mil milhões! (that's just a bit less than PT yearly GDP...)Witt
- well, so you people are just pretending to be poor huh? LIARS!! *shakes fist*janne76
- wow i did not know about them scales, i learned something else today.. nice.janne76

1 thousand = duizend (we leave out the 1 here..)
1 million = 1 miljoen
1 billion = 1 miljard
1 trillion (?) = 1 biljoen
- Witt0
Same here:
1 thousand = 1 milhar (or just "mil")
1 million = 1 milhão
1 billion = 1 milhar de milhão
1 trillion (?) = 1 bilião

I think in English the word is "milliard"; they just don't use it and decided to create another scale because all that stuff looked too French.
