2004 Homeland Security Budget

$   829 figure out what needs protecting
$   803 invent amazing new ways to someday protect it
$ 5,900 respond to attacks
$18,900 make travel more irritating
$     0 keep people safe

clue:

The numbers are from the 2004 requested budget. Oh yeah, this is the government we’re talking about, so multiply all those figures by 1,000,000. Hint: 0 x 1,000,000 = 0.

take oh take this clue away
