If you took the total cost of the Iraq war so far, it'd be $611 Billion USD, these are just some of the things that it could have been spent on instead.

Shocking.

That could buy me alot of coffee...

Or it could be used to help fund somethings like hosptials and programs to better the country... Thats alot of money.

Really, it would have been cheaper to just buy Iraq instead of attacking Iraq.

 

[Johnson]

I'm pissed.

---- impeached, Bush should be trialed and hung.

Seen that before. But yes, this whole Iraq war business is pretty crazy. But most importantly, crazy expensive... to all of humanity.

If the money had not been spent, it should have been given back to the taxpayers that actually paid the money.

I think I am only around 10 billion...

Would you rather have bush, Or clinton?

Neither, Im not gay.

 

[Stanley08]

Coffee would be my solution

 

[AMC]

I have to say that from what ive learned, that figure of US debt is a little inflated but they do have a defeciet ( i think thats how you spell it ) to china.

And free fuel sounds good

 

[Robert]

Would you rather have bush, Or clinton?

Clinton can't even promise that she'll have the troops HOME by the end of her first term!

I would rather have Bush. Clinton wants to give away our country to everyone who isn't a legal resident.

 

[Blank Verse]

Indeed. I'm not in any way supporting Bush or the Republicans, but I know Clinton would be worse.

Clinton '08

She'll pull out the troops.

And ruin our lives while she's at it.

What a ****ing bad choice it would be to vote for her.

I won't take anyone who votes for Hilary Clinton serious ever again.

There's no redeeming yourself from that.

Well to me the money could have been used for better causes such as improving our public school system, health care for low income families, grants and scholarships for students trying to enter college. Theres so many things that these funds could have been used for, but instead we allowed Bush to blow it all foolishly behind his lies and deciet..
