That will be $1,488.55 please

A report came out today that says that the war in Iraq has cost the United States $450 billion to date.  So I decided to do a little math on it and it costs every American $1,488.55.  Costs to continue our "War of Terror" in Iraq and Afghanistan is about $12 billion a month or $35 dollars per person which translates to about $400 per person per year.  Aren't there better things we can do with $400. I know I could think of a shitload of things I could do with $400 dollars.  In fact I will list a few for you, my sexy' inquisitive readers: 

  • 1. Give 400 people a buck.
  • 2. Give 800 people fiddy cents
  • 3. Give 1200 people a quarter (Dig the math skills people!)
  • 4. Most importantly, have an extra $400 dollars in my pocket to do with what I please.

Children, we all know war is bad mmkay. but is it really that expensive as well?
