Comment on: Conservative Plan for the Uninsured

The Politics of US Military Deaths in Iraq

6 Comments

Cost in Human lives

Not to belittle the cost in human lives suffered by both the military and the American citizens.

Fiscally the war is humbled by current practices as well.

One example - War on Iraq cost 10 billion a month
Illegal immigration cost 28.5 billion a month.

Excellent point, GarryB!

And out of the 10 billion, I think our military is improving its equipment and methods in territory we will have to deal with for years to come.

Where are you?

Keep coming back looking for more good stuff.

A1218 thank you for the figures

do you have sources for them?
I have often wished for this kind analysis.
Liberals are selective about which lives matter.
i think it has something to do with investments.

The figures are from the federal government web sites. Crime stats are from the FBI, and car fatalities from NHTSA.
