A new study by the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the Iraq and Afghanistan wars will end up costing 2.4 trillion dollars. If you want to pay your share now, that works out to $8,000 for every American man, woman, and child.
Heck, it's no wonder Bush says our nation can't afford to spend $35 billion over five years taking care of sick kids. And if you're curious, that comes to $117 (spread over five years) for every man, woman, and child.
