100 billion dollars
i heard that america is spending something like 100 billion dollars on this war in iraq. 100 billion dollars! i don't think i could count that high.
how many schools does 100 billion dollars buy? how many people could be educated in schools for 100 billion dollars? how many hospitals could be built with 100 billion dollars? how many people could be fed with 100 billion dollars? how many vaccines could be produced with 100 billion dollars? how many roads could be created with 100 billion dollars?
100 billion dollars. that is the number that i heard america is spending on this war. there are other countries involved too. how much money are they spending? how many books could they buy with those dollars?
in the minds of those in charge, it must make more economical sense to kill people instead. it seems pretty silly to me.
