Other things that $1.5 billion dollars could buy:
- enough childhood vaccines to save the life of aproximately 1.4 million chidren worldwide
- fully fund the federal AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) for fiscal year 2005
- match the total amount of pledged funds in tsunami disaster relief from all countries in the world except one (Japan)
- Buy every, man, woman, child, dog AND cat in the United States a happy meal from McDonalds!
