And in war time you have the contractors. There are almost as many in Iraq as there are soldiers; and they earn over $100,000 tax free.

I'm not even sure if the military salaries are included in the cost of the Iraq situation. It shouldn't be - even if the US weren't in Iraq those 150k soldiers would still be getting paid.
