What is certain is that your $3 Trillion number is not only wrong, it is vastly wrong.

No... it's not. And the Iraq/Afghanistan wars are treated as a separate budget item, not a part of general military spending. How about your figures from the other wars?

I think we'll take the Iraq war cost estimates from Nobel-winning economists over YOURS, i-node. Don't you think that's the wiser course?

Your figures are like counting the down payment on a car as it's total cost. You do know that we've BORROWED all that money, and will have to pay China back?
