So 21 Billion dollars. Meanwhile, US companies are making 1 billion n a year in revenue on profit margins so low, they're doing everything they can to pull out.
it would take 21 years to match it in revenue. Let alone profit. Nevermind the fact that it ended up costing way more then that, even from the first month on... and the government had to of known it. Since the limiting factors in the CBO's predictions were they didn't know how many troops we were going to mobilize etc.
The rosy predictions from the administration before the war started was 100 Billion. So... Yeah. 100 year plan.
Not really a credible arguement.
Though that's the last i'll say on it since this arguement isn't even located in the right side of the world in regards to the thread topic... and argueing with people about this is like argueing with 9/11 truthers. |
Just because the CBO says something does not mean that politicians listen, or interpret it correctly.
I think the war was motivated by oil only secondarily, and really was mostly about "finishing" the job that HW Bush started, but oil had to play a part.
