8 Billion! Cool! And the Afghan war is currently costing 2.5 Billion every month. And that doesn't count the Iraq war and the fact that we STILL occupy Germany and Japan 60 years after WW2. Or the 70+ other countries that we have troops stationed in.
Hell if you added up all of that shit, that 8 billion is probably gone in less than a week.
I wonder what history will say about us in the future?
