Some very rough figures and I'll use your 1b per month figure.<br> <br> "new health care" cost approx 3 Trillion dollars<br> <br> "Iraq" approx 1 Billion<br> <br> 3 trillion / 1 billion per month * 12 months per year = 250 years.<br> <br> So we'd have had to been in iraq for roughly 250 years to equal out what Washington wants to do to us now? That seems like a bit different scale of spending to me.<br> <br> How about the 700 Billion stimulus... we know that number is actually higher but will stay with 700 B.<br> <br> Thats 58 and 1/3 yrs of "Iraq" spending.
