re: Iran War Cost Tracker Since Strikes Began (Live Estimates now $11,416,352,008 and rising)

And?

Now do social programs and associated fraud (Learing, MediCare, Medicaid, hospice, SSDI, etc...). National Defense is specifically mentioned in our Constitution. The others not so much.

We have not even reached Minnesota fraud. Put in the other 50 states and Trump could bomb for years.

A small price to pay for freedom.

Agreed. However, does it really make economic sense for a country which is 40 trillion in debt to

1) spend more on defense than Russia, China, Germany, UK, India, Saudi Arabia, France, Japan, South Korea, Italy, Israel, Ukraine, Poland combined

2) be asking for another half trillion per year on top of that?

How about we deal with the fraud, then use that money to pay down our debt so our dollar might be worth something again some day.

Which is the #1 threat to America, by far. Iran is about #500 on the list.

Bombing and invading another country is not national defense.

It is when it affects maritime shipping.
It is when it affects terrorism across a large region of the planet.
It is when the regime continually takes American hostages.
It is when the regime continuously funds attacks against US soldiers the past 2 decades.
It is when the regime starts and ends every meeting with Death To America.

I say its good practice and on live targets too. Keeps our guys sharp.

So, about 1/1000th of the Democrat/illegal immigrant welfare fraud that we’ve already found so far. Much of which have wound up in the pockets of Democrat politicians and their donors.

The Iran eradication seems like a bargain given what it’s going to save us in the end.


ETA: Did you cry like a little pussy this much over the billions of dollars worth of high-tech military equipment Biden left for the Taliban in Afghanistan?

only time leftists care about the cost of anything
