Legacy pitch? Its not like he said anything NEW!

However, he will have caused people to take the issue a little more seriously.

I remember this old joke ..

This guy decides to get himself frozen. He tells the cyro folks to wake him up when his portfolio is greater than four billion dollars.

One day he is woke up from his long nap. He asks for directions to the nearest pay phone and calls his broker. Calls the broker and after a while gets to the person running his portfolio. "I have good news and bad news. The good news is that your portfolio is now worth more than six billion dollars." Just then the operator breaks in and says "Please deposit one million dollars for the next three minuets."

I think the plan is to inflate our way out.

Who knows .. in ten years 3 trillion might only be two days of our GDP.
