The Cost of the Iraq War: Can You Say $1,000,000,000,000?



- More than a century's worth of EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) spending.

- 18 anual budgets for the Department of Education

- 170 anual budgets for the National Cancer Institute

- 200 anual budgets for the National Science Foundation

- 28 anual budgets for Homeland Security

that all would have been too smart, therefore not practical , or political:disgust

imagine all the scientific discoveries and advancements that could've been made but instead we get zero

Thousands of endangered species could have been preserved for a long time.

I know, it sucks. We only freed 30 million people.

Freeing 60 million people?

How about giving the fucking money back to the tax payers and let them fucking decide what to do with THEIR MONEY? How about not borrowing fucking money from China? How about they stop stealing from the fucking Social Security fund? :error

Yeah they sure are greatful huh? I mean what with the constant bombings, mayhem, bloodshed and murder! Don't forget people being beheaded, stabbed, blugeoned, clubbed, kicked, punched, etc etc.

So by the time you're done freeing those 30 million people there'll be what, maybe 50 or 60left who've managed to not get shot/stabbed/blown up/beheaded?

Come on man. I know that deep inside, there's a whiny, crybaby liberal just dying to come out of you! Only then will we see your rainbow colours in full view! Let it out man, its okay. You don't have to tow the party line here - GFY is all about axcepting homosexuals with open arms! Maybe one of the resident homo's will be happy to "show you the ropes"!

The Baathists are still looking for people to become their slaves. Volunteers are encouraged. Go ahead, Man!

Will that still be a sound investment 72 hours after the U.S. withdraws its troops from Iraq?

Think about all the money we could have saved if we didn't have welfare.

Yeah, but don't you just feel safer? Now Saddam is dead and all...?

30 million people who never attempted to free themselves, nor do they seem to care about rebuilding. Just remember that when our guys are dying for the freedom of Iraq.

I don't know how you want to define "free" as it relates to Iraq anyway. We gave them our definition of freedom, democracy, and they turned around and wrote their own constitution that pretty much emulates what was the iron fist of Saddam.

If there was no Iraq war I am sure the government would squander the money elsewhere.

1 annual budget for Haliburton.

You are a fucking clueless redneck piece of whte trash shit. You should fucking die.

You dont give a fuck about those people. Lie to someone who fucking believes that bullshit.

It's not just about the money or the oil (which the mainstream media rarely mentions - just who is profiting from the oil being pumped out of Iraq now?)...

Your "guys" are dying for energy. That's all this fucked up war is about.

Yea right..... just what we need. Bigger budgets for government agencies so they have more ability to interfere in our lives. I would rather see the money go overseas then be used to expand the federal bureaucracy. They should give the money back to the people who worked for it. Better yet they should stop stealing it in the first place. :2 cents:

What wonders me is the downhill economy of so-called super power just by fighting with two third world countries. Imagine what would have happened if US had started war with North Korea, Iran etc.

Either post proof or STFU. Mccain 08 = the end.
