National Debt in Base 12

Here is the total National Debt in Millions of Dollars.  In base-12, X means 10 and E means 11.  It doesn't look so big in duodecimal.

And here are projections going forward:

9/30/2018 27382000  9206094
9/30/2019 30392000  X217E68
9/30/2020 33823000  E3E15E4


These numbers come from an old projection that still hasn't been disproved, but may be too high.
