Freedom Definitely Isn't Free

So far the Bush administration has requested $75 billion ($255 an American)
for Operation Iraqi Freedom. How does that compare to other wars?

BusinessWeek pegs World War I at $191 billion in 2002 dollars ($2,489 for
each American), WWII at $2.9 trillion ($20,388 each), Korean War at $336
billion ($2,266 each), Vietnam War at $494 billion ($2,204 each) and the Gulf
War at $76 billion ($306 each), $54 billion of which coalition members
reimbursed.
